Can't they make something safer than some spinning blade sticking out for boats motors?

they have jet drive, but it's just a heavy addition to the same motor where you lose 20% power and have less bite in the water for slow speed maneuvering.

If you just can't keep your fingers out of the spinny thingy, maybe try a sailboat.

This is why I use jet skis

Jet skis are fucked in shallow water.

Genius. Why don't all boats have these?

It's almost as if we had the technology to make all sorts of vehicles much safer but the motorist refuses
>geeee I wonder why

The human population needs to be reduced. We should be making everything way more dangerous, like China.

>>2878371
How many deaths or injuries from props in the last decade?
>>
>>2878371
afaik they have a noticeable impact on performance. Also, stuff can still get tangled in there and the cage makes it even more of a nightmare to untangle.
>>

They keep some stuff out but get easily clogged with other stuff. Kelp wont even get inside, it will just make a mat on the outside and reduce propulsion to near zero. Theyre best used at Crystal Lake so campers dont get injured.
