I take the keys out of mine when left unattended because I lock the cabin up and I want a little deterrent. Taking the keys out of the ignition switch on the vast majority of stern drive boats is going to add 10 seconds to the time it takes to steal it. Most boats are ridiculously easy to hot wire. Connect the red/purple to the purple to turn it on, and momentarily touch the red/purple to yellow/red to start. That's it...
