I couldn't help but picture this scenario: Boy up front topples sideways into water. Boy steering boat sees the other fall over, immediately pulls the steering handle of the motor sharply to the side to make the boat turn in the other direction. The prop thus is aimed right at where the first kid went overboard.
Exactly!
