I can believe it. Amishters have some weird rult's about what they can
or can't use/do.

A lot of their welding and craft shops have computerized equipment and
have full kitchens with modern appliances and air conditioning, but no
power or running water to their house next door. Some modern tractors
(diesel only allowed) that have been changed over to steel wheels
etc.

But anyhow, I wouldn't be surprised if the engine on that boat wasn't
rope start only. Some would go to an extreme and literally pull the
electric starter off.

Different sects of them have different rules in the amount of modern
things they can have.
