I can't believe some engineer thought this was a good idea.  Maybe I'm the crazy one?  But when the powerhead of an "outboard" is underwater, there is inherently something just waiting to happen.  Water detection probe is part of the engine and so is a bilge pump.  But what happens if your battery goes dead?  You get a flooded powerhead.  What are your thoughts??
