Indeed it is Rob. I can't tell you how many guys get seriously injured with ladders and chainsaws. As I said before. If you can't reach it from the ground, hire a pro. We use the right equipment for the situation.

I see guys cutting without PPE all the time also. I don't start my saws without my Kevlar chaps on and eye protection.

No boat, back in the suds.
