SAFETY
When hull exhaust outlets are blocked by a pier, dock,
seawall or any other means CO can accumulate within
enclosed areas. Make sure hull exhaust outlets are not
blocked (Figure 2-9).
Even with the best boat design and construction, CO may
still accumulate in enclosed areas under certain conditions.
Continuously observe passengers for symptoms of CO
poisoning.
CO Detector
We recommend that you have marine grade CO detectors
installed in boats with canvas enclosures. Monitors are
available from your dealer. Monitors should be
professionally installed and calibrated.
NOTE: A CO detector is not a gas fuel vapor detector.
Gas fuel vapor detectors do not monitor the buildup of
carbon monoxide in an enclosed area.
LANYARD STOP SWITCH
Your boat may have a lanyard stop switch. This safety
device automatically stops the engine when lanyard is
attached to the operator and the operator moves far
enough away from the control station to activate the
switch. The following summarizes information about this
switch. The engine owner’s manual may have more
detailed information.
