Miller v. Rinker Boat Co.9/15/2004
.E.2d at 987.
In conclusion, I strongly disagree with the majority's decision. I believe that it is inconsistent with this court's recent decision in Bates, inconsistent with earlier decisions of this court, particularly Scoby, and may cause turmoil in products-liability law in Illinois . If the fact that the surface of a boat becomes slippery when wet becomes the basis for a products-liability claim, then we may be dangerously close to the point where, under Illinois law, manufacturers truly are the absolute insurers of the safety of persons using their products, no matter how simple the product may be, and no matter how it is used.
