Motorized personal watercraft safety tether alarm systems comprised of a safety lanyard with an alert indicator used in connection with electrical circuitry of electronic motor switches for switching off motors, namely, alarmed lanyards for safety purposes having a kill switch key for connecting to motorized watercraft kill switch safety mechanisms of boats, outboard motors, inboard motors, personal water craft, and motorized watercraft; motorized personal watercraft safety alarm devices, namely, engine cut off switch links being alarmed safety tethers in the nature of safety lanyards for safety use in connection with electronic motor switches for switching off motors, the aforementioned featuring a kill switch key for connecting to a motorized watercraft kill switch safety mechanism and designed to provide an audible and/or visible alert when the safety tether is not connected to an operator; and parts and fittings therefor
A connector includes a male, key-like member that is operably received in a female connector body. The key-like member includes a stem for operative association with a cord or other body and a distal element. The female connector has a body defining a proximal portion for operative association with a cord or other body and a slot extending along a surface of the body to an aperture for receiving a distal element of a first connector element. A first inside channel extends from the slot at a distal end of the connector to a depth from the surface of the slot. A second inside channel extends from the aperture to the first channel. One of the first and second connectors is provided with a sensor. The sensor indicates that the first connector element is located at the distal portion of the inside channel.

The present invention relates to a mechanical connector for fasteners associated with cords, belts, straps and the like. More specifically, the invention relates to a mechanical connector for the connection of two components, with a sensor or switch such as an electrical switch operable to confirm association whereby, for example, to enable performance of a function in a system. Motor boat personnel have been known to fall overboard from a boat, from time to time. In the case of the pilot of a motor boat, especially a lone pilot, it has been known for the boat to continue its operation without an operator. Kill-switch systems have been developed so as to prevent movement of a vehicle once the kill-switch has been activated. The kill-switch key must be distinguished from a key used to operate a boat - or other motorised personal vehicle generally, since the key is operable to enable the vehicle to move and so, in one sense, could disengage a drive shaft, for example, although typically disables the ignition such that the engine is killed. Should the operator fall overboard, the lanyard would become taught and would subsequently pull the latch¬ key from the switch, breaking the electric circuit of the engine ignition system, turning off, or "killing" the engine. The present invention seeks to provide an improved fastener for use with a security device such as a kill-cord device.
The present invention relates to motor safety devices as used in increasing numbers for the killing of engines or disengaging propulsion units from motors, when there are no operators to maintain control of an apparatus or vehicle such as jet-ski, boat, go-kart and the like or personnel to oversee use of a motorised tool or the like. Motor boat operators on a boat have been known to fall overboard without being detected by the operator of the boat. Such runaway boats have been known to seriously injure the operator of the boat in the water since a runaway boat tends to circle back to the place where the operator has fallen overboard. The present invention is also applicable to other types of equipment such as motorised gymnasium equipment, hand operated power tools, such as agricultural and arboriculturist equipment and wood working tools.
