2023 OWNER’S MANUAL / 08
Under no circumstances should the owner and/or operator
allow persons to hold onto the swim platform while the engine is
operating and the boat is in motion. These activities (sometimes
known as “teak surfing” or “platform dragging,” where the
participant holds onto the swim platform and is pulled through
the water, and/or “body surfs” immediately behind the boat) are
extremely dangerous, highly likely to result in death or serious
bodily injury, and are a misuse of this product.
Carbon monoxide (CO) enters your bloodstream through the lungs,
blocking the oxygen your body needs. Prolonged exposure to low
concentrations or very quick exposure to high concentrations can
be deadly to all on board.
Early symptoms of CO poisoning include irritated eyes, headache,
nausea, weakness and dizziness. These can be confused with
seasickness or intoxication. Altitude, certain health-related
problems, and age will increase the effects of CO. Persons who
smoke or are exposed to high concentrations of cigarette smoke,
consume alcohol, or have lung disorders or heart problems
are particularly susceptible to an increase in the effects of CO.
However, anyone can be affected. Another factor to consider is
that physical exertion accelerates the rate at which the blood
absorbs CO.
CARBON MONOXIDE (CO)
When anchoring the boat, you MUST turn OFF the engine. In most
models, exhaust fumes containing carbon monoxide are emitted
from the exhaust flap area of the transom immediately below the
swim platform. No one should ever be on the swim platform or
transom while the engine is operating.
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, tasteless, odorless and
poisonous gas that accumulates rapidly and can cause serious
injury or death. Exposure to carbon monoxide can be fatal in a
matter of minutes. Exposure to even low concentrations of carbon
monoxide must not be ignored because the effects of long term
carbon monoxide exposure can build up and be just as lethal as
high concentrations. Carbon monoxide from exhaust pipes of
inboard or outboard engines may build up inside and outside the
boat in areas near exhaust vents, particularly during slow-speed
operations. STAY AWAY from these exhaust vent areas, which are
located at the stern of the boat, and DO NOT swim or engage in
any water sports or other activities in or near the stern area of the
boat, including, without limitation, the swim platform, the rear sun
deck, and aft facing lounge seats when the engine is in operation.
