Interesting that pleasure craft have dead-man switches you can optionally affix. They’re also designed to turn anti-clockwise forever if nobody is at the wheel.

I guess because there aren’t seatbelts and these boats are usually open-top.

Isn't this dangerous to the person falling off (assuming no dead-man switch)? You fall off only to be run over by your own craft one turn later... It does mean that the boat won't run away far though, so there's that.

That's probably a result of the "paddle wheel" effect of the propellor rotating through the water: a bug not a feature.
