4.10.4 Reporting Accidents
Federal regulations require that operators involved in an accident file a written account of the situation
within 48 hours. Reports should be submitted to the State Boating Law Administrator. You can obtain forms
through the USCG or local authorities (i.e. harbor patrol, sheriff or police offices). In the event that a casu-
alty or disap-pearance occurs as the result of an accident, you must notify the authorities immediately by
phone or radio and fill out a written statement.
4.10.5 Weather
Pay attention to weather patterns. If you find yourself in the path of a storm, seek shelter immediately. If
you cannot reach a dock, seek refuge inside the boat while the storm advances. Never get in the water, and
stay clear of metal components on your boat. If lightning strikes, it would likely pass through metal objects
seeking a ground.
4.10.6 Towing
Due to an accident or loss of power, it may become necessary to tow another vessel or have your boat
towed. If you are providing assistance, never attempt to tow a boat larger than your own. Be certain to use
proper lines (ropes) and rational judgement to prevent further damage. Tow lines are under heavy strain,
therefore passen-gers should remain clear of the lines to protect themselves from injury. For more infor-
mation on towing, refer-ence page 39 of the
Sportfish, Cruisers, Yachts Owner
’
s Manual.
4.11 Carbon Monoxide (CO)
One of the most important considerations when dealing with boating safety is carbon monoxide. Commonly
referred to as (CO), carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas emitted from any engine
exhaust. Including inboards and outboards. A CO particle is close in weight to the air we consume; there-
fore it does not rise or fall in the atmosphere, but accumulates in enclosed spaces. Boat owners with en-
closed heads, cabins, or canvas enclo-sures should pay particular attention to CO. Be aware that fumes pro-
duced on your boat can affect other vessels and other boats can affect you. A primary concern is the use of
generators when boats are moored adjacent to each other.
Carbon Monoxide is poisonous and potentially fatal if inhaled over an extended period of time. Symptoms of
CO poisoning include:
-
Dizziness
-
Nausea / Vomiting
-
Headache / Throbbing in the temples
-
Fatigue
-
Muscular twitching
-
Inability to focus or think clearly
If you or any of passengers experience any of these symptoms, leave the area and find a source of fresh air
imme-diately. If your symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
!!! DANGER
Carbon Monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas produced by the
exhaust system of any combustible engine. CO can cause brain damage or death,
if inhaled over an extended period of time. To protect yourself and your passen-
gers, never block the ventilation outlets in cabins, consoles, or other enclosed
spaces.
