• Before departing, inform a friend or relative where
you intend to cruise and when you will return so
they can tell the 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 form with the 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 under-
way.
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless and
tasteless gas which is emitted in all engine and gen-
erator exhaust. Prolonged exposure to CO can result in
unconsciousness, brain damage and death.
Carver has installed CO detectors on your boat. Have
these detectors professionally calibrated at regular
intervals.
To help prevent the accumulation of CO in your boat’s
cabin and in enclosed exterior areas:
• Pay attention to prevailing conditions and provide
ventilation to induce fresh air and minimize ex-
haust re-entry. Position the boat to maximize the
dissipation of CO. Be aware that CO can enter the
boat through cockpit and deck drains, especially
when the cockpit and deck are enclosed.
• Do not operate the engines or generator for more
than a very short period of time while the boat is
stationary, especially if the boat is rafted or moored
in a confined area.
• Be aware that mooring and anchoring in an area
where other boats’ engines or generators are run-
ning may put your boat in an atmosphere contain-
ing CO, even if your boat’s engines and generator
are not running.
