while I don't have a pool, I have an inground water garden and have thought ‘damn, that’d suck.’ but after being slid, launched out of my chair, I’m willing to go, down w/ the ‘ship’...what a dumbass in italy

I have, and take care of a pool in my power chair and I am very careful now after backing one of my six wheels over the edge backing up too far. I never wear a belt tying me in partly because of drowning fear AND I have tipped over frontwards coming down my van ramp when the door stop yanked my hand off the joystick thus slamming the brakes on while I was going front wards downhill... luckily, my son was there to pick me up off the hot driveway in a Phoenix summer.

I know there is a group in AZ that takes quads sailing and they have a rule of no seat belts on when near the water. Greg
