I don’t think I want a switch that kills me if I fall overboard!
The three main problems I see here are 1: How are they going to determine if the pilot actually has it on without detaining them, 2. how is that going to work with outboard motors and the pilot sitting in front of the motor, and 3. I have never seen a boat with the type of plug in unit in the cockpit or bridge required as a killswitch. This I assume will have to be built into the dash and programed into the computers, thus expense. Boating just got more expensive. And if the boats are required to have them, new purchases will be higher in cost until the “shine” of having one gets old and will effect resales for a while also.
