SAFETY-13
Engine and generator exhaust from other vessels
alongside your yacht, while docked or anchored,
can cause excessive accumulation of Carbon
Monoxide Gas (CO) within the cabin and cockpit
areas of your yacht. Be alert for exhaust from
other vessels.
When protective weather coverings are in place,
engine or generator exhaust from your yacht,
while docked, at anchor, drifting or underway
can cause excessive accumulation of Carbon
Monoxide Gas (CO) within the cabin and cockpit
areas of your yacht. Always provide adequate
ventilation when the weather coverings are in
place and either the engine or the generator are
running.
Engine or generator exhaust from your yacht
while underway at a slow speed can cause exces-
sive accumulation of Carbon Monoxide Gas (CO)
within the cabin and cockpit areas of your yacht.
A tail wind can increase the accumulation. This
is often referred to as the “Stationwagon Effect”.
Always provide adequate ventilation or increase
your speed, if possible.
Engine or generator exhaust from your yacht
while underway and operating with a high bow
angle can cause excessive accumulation of
Carbon Monoxide Gas (CO) within the cabin
and cockpit areas of your yacht. Always provide
adequate ventilation and redistribute the load to
lower the bow angle.
