[QUOTE="TOTONKA, post: 46847, member: 753"] 2 reasons... 1) The tiller throttle should be spring loaded and drop back to idle when it is released, rather than continuing to run full bore and have the boat run him over if he were to fall out. (it happens)Those old control boxes don't have a kill switch lanyard. 2) The throttle controls are on the right and the tiller handle is on the right, so if you are running both with your right hand, then your hand is leaving the tiller to speed up/slow down... Only takes a second. [/QUOTE]
