Randy Howell runs The Leash: video
Randy Howell and The Leash recently posted a video of Randy explaining why he runs The Leash, a tether to prevent large outboard motors from breaking off and flipping into boats after striking submerged objects or when running in rough water.
Several outboard motors have flipped into boats while the outboard motor is still under power with the propeller rotating at thousands of RPM striking those on board.
Randy is a well known figure on the pro bass angler circuit associated with several sponsors including outboard motor manufacturer Mercury Marine.
