Automatic/Manual Inflatable Vest

Excellent hint to use the lower unit to get back into the boat. As long as the motor isn't running!!

I've got power tilt and could probably put my foot on the lower unit and use the trim bottom right on the motor to lift my fat butt back into the boat. Haven't had to try it but it's in my Man Overboard Plans.

When I fell out of my boat the motor was not running fortunately. I was fishing at the front of the boat and using the trolling motor with the foot pedal.

Yea definitely don't try this if the motor is running and and the boat motor is in gear. Now I normally turn the motor off when I'm getting someone back into my boat when water skiing. I figured that was a given but I'm glad that you brought this up. Not everyone may know this.

Never underestimate the stupidity of some people. Yes, it's a given to those that know better but others may not.
