What is the purpose of a lanyard attached to ignition switch on boat?

The lanyard attached to a boat's ignition switch is a safety kill switch. Its purpose is to immediately shut off the engine if the operator is thrown overboard or falls unexpectedly. If the lanyard is pulled from the switch (e.g., the operator is separated from the boat), the engine will instantly stop, preventing runaway vessels and potential accidents.
