Very glad to see the safety discussion. Most informative. I am very
involved in the US effort to require that all exposed propellers on
boats are guarded. We can use your assistance and input. If you have
never seen the results of someone that has been involved with a
rotating propeller, there are only two other forms of injury that
equals the devastation to the human body being struck at 180 hits per
second at an idle RPM and that is a full body burn or a significant
hostile combat injury. Please join in the discussion whether you agree
or disagree.The site is Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient
Recreational (SAFER) Boating. We just opened for discussion. I am sure
there is much to say pro and con on the exposed propeller injury, pro
and con.
