Airhead BKS-6 Outboard Kill Switch Keys with Lanyard, Fits BRP, Johnson, Evinrude, Mercury, Yamaha, Honda, Tohatsu, Nissan, Suzuki

The Airhead BKS-6 is a lanyard of replacement outboard kill switch keys, built for boaters who want a spare on hand at all times. The lanyard carries 7 keys sized to fit most BRP, Johnson, Evinrude, Mercury, Yamaha, Honda, Tohatsu, Nissan, and Suzuki kill switches, so a single lanyard covers a wide range of outboard and sterndrive setups without needing to track down a brand-specific key. Losing or snapping a kill switch key away from the dock can strand a boat, since most marinas do not stock replacements on site; keeping the BKS-6 clipped in a life jacket pocket or tackle bag closes that gap.

The lanyard is finished with a swivel snap hook that keeps the cord from twisting and tangling in use, and the crimps holding the keys are stainless steel so they resist rust in a wet marine environment. Construction combines plastic key bodies with the stainless steel hardware for a durable, corrosion-resistant accessory that is meant to live in a boat's safety gear rather than a toolbox at home.
