PREVENTING CO EXPOSURE
Open a forward hatch, porthole or window to help
prevent the accumulation of CO in the cabin and
enclosed exterior areas. Creating air circulation allows air
to travel through the interior of the yacht.
Blockage of boat exhaust by obstruction
KC-0061-A
Figure 2-21
Have a trained marine technician inspect the exhaust
systems when the yacht is in for service, or if the operator
notices a change in the sound of an engine or the
generator.
To prevent serious injury or death by asphyxiation:
• Keep the engine room hatch closed when operating
the engines and generator.
• Never occupy aft lounging areas, including the
boarding platform. Never swim near the engine
or generator exhaust outlets while the engines or
generator are running.
• Minimize the time spent getting underway. CO
production is greater when the engines are cold.
• Maintain the propulsion and generator engines to
optimize efficiency, which reduces CO emissions.
For more information on carbon monoxide and yachting,
contact marine organizations that produce safety
publications.

Potential Causes of CO Poisoning
Blockage of exhaust outlets can cause carbon monoxide
to accumulate in the cabin and cockpit area – even when
the hatches, windows, portholes, and doors are closed.
See
Figure 2-21 .
Never operate the generator while the yacht is
moored against another yacht, dock, or wall
structure that could block the exhaust outlet.
