"A man suffered horrific facial injuries after he was slashed by the propeller of a runaway boat on the Gold Coast."

Just a reminder about safety first... it only takes a few seconds to attach the safety lanyard to your wrist and as the Ausfish community know, those few seconds could prevent an unfortunate accident. Whether you're in a small tiller steer on the river or offshore on your lonesome on a "safer" ride, it's a good idea to have it attached while motoring, for your safety and others...
Yes, he was probably being an idiot, but that idiot could run into you in a blink of an eye :-?
