Carbon Monoxide (CO)
CO poisoning causes a significant number of boating deaths each year. Called the "silent killer", CO is an extremely
toxic, colorless, odorless and tasteless gas. Breathing CO blocks the ability of your blood to carry oxygen. The effects
are cumulative, even low levels of exposure can result in injury or death. Factors increasing the effects of CO
include: age, smokers or people exposed to high concentrations of cigarette smoke, consumption of alcohol, lung dis-
orders, heart problems, and pregnancy.
Sources of CO
Sources of CO include:
To correct stationary situations a and/or b:
•
Close all windows, portlights and hatches.
•
If possible, move your boat away from the source of the CO.
To correct running situations c and/or d:
•
Trim the bow down.
•
Open windows and canvas.
•
When possible, run the boat so that the prevailing winds will help dissipate the exhaust.
IMMEDIATELY take corrective action if CO is detected (see, Carbon Monoxide Alarm System, on the next page).
DANGER
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD! Carbon monoxide gas (CO) is color-
less, odorless, and extremely dangerous. All engines, generators, and fuel burning
appliances produce CO as exhaust. Direct and prolonged exposure to CO will cause
BRAIN DAMAGE or DEATH. Signs of CO poisoning include headache, nausea,
dizziness, and drowsiness.

b. Mooring close to
another boat that
