Exhaust Emissions
BE ALERT TO CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a deadly gas that is present in the exhaust fumes of
all internal combustion engines, including the engines that propel boats, and
the generators that power boat accessories. By itself, CO is odorless, colorless,
and tasteless, but if you can smell or taste engine exhaust, you are inhaling
CO.
Early symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning, which are similar to the
symptoms of seasickness and intoxication, include headache, dizziness,
drowsiness, and nausea.
!
WARNING
Inhaling engine exhaust gases can result in carbon monoxide poisoning,
which can lead to unconsciousness, brain damage, or death. Avoid exposure
to carbon monoxide.
Stay clear from exhaust areas when engine is running. Keep the boat
well‑ventilated while at rest or underway.

Engine exhaust gases contain harmful carbon monoxide. Avoid areas of
concentrated engine exhaust gases. When engines are running, keep
swimmers away from the boat, and do not sit, lie, or stand on swim platforms or
boarding ladders. While underway, do not allow passengers to be positioned
immediately behind the boat (platform dragging, teak/body surfing). This
dangerous practice not only places a person in an area of high engine exhaust
concentration, but also subjects them to the possibility of injury from the boat
propeller.
GOOD VENTILATION
Ventilate the passenger area, open side curtains or forward hatches to remove
fumes.
