Anybody notice something in this video that a responsible manufacture's rep should be using, but isn't?

responsible manufacture's rep should be using, but isn't?"

He would never make a sale to a Louisiana duck hunter if he wore a life jacket. Go devil boats and super go devil boats are very popular for duck hunting. The motor on theses things can be anything from a lawnmower engine to a Subaru engine. They make some models with double props and two engines.

They are not designed to go 10 miles down a deep bayou but to access swamps and areas with heavy Lilly pads. Most of the areas are 1 to 4 foot deep. There are deeper slues and ponds but most areas theses boats operate is less ten 4 foot.

Other boats used to go through similar areas is a mud boat. The car engine is mounted in the center of the boat with a prop shaft that goes out the bottom of the boat.

He was not using the safety kill switch?

Are you really saying that the simple fact that the guy in the demo video wore a life jacket would stop a Louisiana duck hunter from buy something that would clearly do what he wanted/needed to be done? Well then, one of the operators in the video has clearly blown the sales opportunity already, because the first guy they show doing it is wearing his. The 2nd guy though, really bothers me. He's bumping his way over floating logs with the boat on plane, and the kill switch lanyard is swaying in the breeze hanging from the throttle. Way too easy to get bounced out of the boat doing exactly what he's doing to not be using it. But the motor is cool. Prop's a lot closer to the boat than a traditional godevil, which has got to make it more maneuverable. I kinda like it. Looks like it would work well in the nut.
