Hmmm... that boat is missing its cockpit. Not sure there is a CO issue here. Electrocution when the boat takes one over the bow, now that's a different story.
 
No no the plastic trash bag will insulate it. SkiBum.
Portable on a glass boat, Occasionally,,, Aluminum WOW!
 
We regularly see "john boats"(sp) with a large generator, sometimes two. The boats we see are larger than the one pictured but not much. The gennys are used to power a half a dozen or more very bright flood lights.

These guys are bow fishing for Carp. I've seen one (in a trashcan in the middle of the boat) that was estimated to weigh 40 pounds. When I asked the guys WTF they were going to do with them........."Feed 'em to my hogs, man."
 
Are they fishing with electricity?
It's efficient and productive!

WE HAVE A WINNER!!!

Firecadet and I saw this at the ramp and thought it strange. They have two long probes that power up to stun the fish. They do not kill, just test them for the BP plant on south Lake Michigan. Did look funny to see such a large gennie on that little boat. MM

What did I win??
Custom swim platform mounts for a Honda eu2000 generator??
A coupon good for 20% off my next "cool mod"?
How about Wayne's SpongeBob as he's not using it anymore?

No, No, No, you win the direct connect pig thread finder app. It is one of Gary's favorites, although it hasn't been featured in the New York Times as Tonka's apps have it still is a must have. MM. :smt043
