SAFE BOATING TIPS
PAGE 19
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM (continued)
Hunter Marine recommends that on all
boats with either/both a house and start
battery, the cables be disconnected
during winter storage or any time the
boat is out of the water for an extended
period
of time. Because of the
continuous electrical drain placed on the
12 volt system by certain electrical
components such as stereos and CO
monitors you will be preserving your
batteries life expectancies.
We recommend that owners who leave
their boats in the water during the sailing
season charge the boats internal
batteries at least once every seven days
during the sailing season (we do not
recommend leaving power connected to
the boat if it is unattended). Completely
depleting a batteries internal charge can
drastically shorten its life span. This
includes gel cell and glass mat batteries.
For owners who live aboard or wish to
leave their boat battery switches in the
on position while unattended (again, we
do not recommend this) should consider
installing a N20504W Nicro Solar vent to
reduce the chances of the CO monitor
’
s
sounding. Only exchanging the air
inside the boat on a regular basis or
leaving the battery switches in the off
position totally eliminates the false
sounding of the monitors while 12-volt
systems are operating.
COOKING STOVE
EXPLOSION/FIRE/ASPHYXIATION
HAZARD

Open flame cooking appliances consume
oxygen. This can cause asphyxiation or
death.

Maintain open ventilation.

Liquid fuel may ignite, causing severe
burns.

Use fuel appropriate for type of stove.

Turn off stove burner before filling.

Do not use stove for comfort heating.

Use special care with flames or high
temperatures near urethane foam. Once
ignited, it burns rapidly, producing
extreme heat, releasing hazardous
gasses and consuming a large amount of
oxygen
.
Carefully read and understand the
manufacturer
’
s instructions prior to
operating your stove. Save the
instructions for review, and also to pass
on to any subsequent owners.
Use only the fuel recommended by the
manufacturer, and store the fuel in an
approved container.
Do not smoke while working with fuel.
Immediately clean up any spilled fuel.
