Should the person operating the PWC (personal water craft) fall overboard, the lanyard will be pulled out and switch off the engine. This prevents the PWC going round in circles and injuring or killing anyone in the water.
Assuming you are referring to an outboard boat motor- if the operator should fall or be thrown out of the boat, that lanyard pulls out of the safety switch and stops the motor.
The operator of a PWC equipped with a lanyard-type ignition safety switch must attach the lanyard to his or her personal clothing. This is a safety measure to stop the PWC if the person falls from the watercraft.
