Pre-Departure Actions
• Check the weather. Make sure conditions and seas will not be hazardous
during your voyage.
• Make sure all safety equipment is onboard, accessible and in good
working condition.
• Check the bilge for fuel vapor or water. Ventilate or pump out the bilge
as necessary.
• Be sure the horn, navigation equipment and lights are working properly.
• Instruct guests and crew in safety and operational matters.
• Check engine and transmission oil and coolant levels. After starting the
engines, check the overboard flow of cooling water, engine temperatures
and oil pressures.
• Fill fuel tanks as full as you need. Know your tank capacity and fuel
consumption at various RPMs and the cruising radius this gives you.
When estimating your range, it is best to count on using 1/3 of your
fuel to reach your destination and 1/3 of your fuel to return, with the
remaining 1/3 of your fuel in reserve for emergencies.
• Have a second person onboard capable of taking over the boat’s
operation in case you are disabled.
• Before departing, inform a friend or relative where you intend to cruise
and when you will return so they can tell the U.S. Coast Guard where
to look and the type of boat in case you are delayed. Remember to tell
them of your safe return to prevent false alarms. Do not file a float plan
with the U.S. Coast Guard. They do not have the manpower to monitor
all boats.
• Stow all loose gear securely. Fenders and docklines should be stowed
immediately after getting underway.
Carbon Monoxide (CO) Warnings
Carver has installed CO detectors on your yacht. Have these detectors
professionally calibrated at regular intervals.
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless and tasteless gas which is emitted in
all engine and generator exhaust. Prolonged exposure to CO can result in
unconsciousness, brain damage and death.
Preventing CO Exposure
To help prevent the accumulation of CO in your boat’s cabin and in
enclosed exterior areas open a forward hatch, porthole or window to
allow air to travel through the boat’s interior, have a trained marine
technician inspect the boat’s exhaust systems whenever the boat is in for
service or if you notice a change in the sound of an engine or the
generator.
