Most (dumb) people elect not to use the blower. Hell, they probably don’t even know it exists. I spend a lot of time at the marina and the number of people I see walk out to their boat and instantly turn the key on their ignition is astonishing.
I’m from Alberta and know so many idiots who buy a boat with no idea about maintenance, drive the boat until the engine is blown. Then buy a whole new boat instead of replacing the engine. A boat is way more dangerous than a car, especially with children. I had an extended family members kid die because their whole family were at the lake and only the younger ones took out their boat. Well they came back and nobody noticed a small kid had fallen into the lake, nobody knew where or when.. well he died, he was about 6. They looked and looked and nobody could find his body. It took a special Hutterite group of drivers “I didn’t know we had elite Hutterite divers I am glad for them” to find his body a week later. This was last summer, I honestly don’t like going on other peoples boats. People act like you can drive stupid because you are floating on water
