or adjust an engine while it is running. Certain
moving parts are exposed and failing to shut
off the engine can result in serious injury or
death.

E - 2 ENGINE EXHAUST
The.carbon.monoxide.in.exhaust.fumes.can.be.haz-
ardous..It.is.important.for.you.and.your.passengers.
to.be.aware.of.the.potential.safety.hazard.created.by.
exhaust.fumes..Familiarize.yourself.with.the.symptoms.
of.individuals.overcome.by.carbon.monoxide,.and.most.
importantly,.ways.you.can.protect.yourself.and.your.
guests..
DO NOT inhale exhaust fumes! Exhaust con-
tains carbon monoxide which is colorless and
odorless. Carbon monoxide is a dangerous
gas that is potentially lethal.
Persons overcome by carbon monoxide may
exhibit the following symptoms:
a. Watering and itchy eyes
b. Flushed appearance
c. Throbbing temples
d. Inattentiveness
e. Inability to think coherently
f. Ringing in the ears
g. Tightness across the chest
h. Headache
i. Drowsiness
j. Incoherence
k. Nausea
l. Dizziness
m. Fatigue
n. Vomiting
o. Collapse
p. Convulsions
IF YOU THINK EXHAUST FUMES ARE
ENTERING YOUR BOAT, DETERMINE
THE CAUSE AND HAVE IT CORRECTED
IMMEDIATELY!
The.following.suggestions.can.help.prevent.exhaust.
fumes.from.entering.the.boat:
1.. DO.NOT.allow.the.boat.to.remain.stationary.with.
the.engine.running.for.an.extended.period.of.time..
Do.not.stand.or.swim.near.the.exhaust.output.or.
outdrive.when.the.engine.is.idling..
2.. Use.extreme.caution.while.operating.the.engine.
in confined areas such as enclosed slips or con-
gested.piers..Operation.under.such.conditions.
could.easily.lead.to.exhaust.gasses.(carbon.mon-
. oxide).entering.even.though.you.may.have.all.the.
hatches,.windows,.doors.and.portholes.closed.
3.. Persons.sleeping.can.be.easily.overcome.by.
carbon.monoxide.because.they.are.unaware.of.
its.presence..Sleeping.while.the.engine.is.running.
is.not.recommended..If.persons.are.sleeping.
aboard.while.underway,.those.awake.should.
monitor.for.carbon.monoxide.accumulation.in.the.
cabin;.especially.the.sleeping.areas..
