propellers scare me, and I grew up around boats. I don’t like being around them unless im pretty confident in the person controlling the ignition.

It’s hard to get under the prop on a wake boat though, was discussing with my cobworkers, you would have to be intentionally angling your legs under the boat as the prop is a couple of feet back from the stern. Unless it wasn’t a wake boat and had an old style inboard/outboard engine.

true. I mostly dealt with v-drives and direct drives, but I did have to swim under and untangle a rope or two in my time.
