I don't know why you include me in this ... The idiot boater broke at least two laws in this tragedy ... In my view ... he has absolutely NO CASE against the manufacturer of the boat.
I have personally yelled at boaters who do stupid stuff like this (even recently). I live on the delta and see/hear of bonehead people getting killed on the river ALL THE TIME. It's a shame that the kids of boneheads suffer for their parents stupidity sometimes.
BUT the rest of us should NOT suffer for it.

It was your post #6. Several people were discounting the dangers of CO and I took your short comment as referring to the whole article including the dangers of CO. If I had known you meant to refer ONLY to the 'lawsuit' issue I would not have included you.

I ran into my lawyer other day. 2 adults out kayaking, river got calm, they took off vests and the water picked up. No time to get vests back on. Wife a bad swimmer lived by holding onto kayak for sometime and then a rock. Husband died. Wife saw him float by her. He hit his head. Another tragedy that could have been avoided.

"I live on the delta and see/hear of bonehead people getting killed on the river ALL THE TIME. It's a shame that the kids of boneheads suffer for their parents stupidity sometimes." As Jerry Pournelle put it in his book "Oath of Fealty"---"think of it as evolution in action".
