How to Protect Yourself and Others From CO
•
Know where and how CO may accumulate in and around your yacht (see above).
•
Maintain fresh air circulation throughout the yacht at all times.
•
Know where your engine and generator exhaust outlets are located and keep everyone away from these areas.
•
Never sit on, or hang onto, the back deck or swim platform while the engine(s) are running.
•
Never enter the areas under swim platforms where exhaust outlets are located.
•
Although CO can be present without the smell of exhaust fumes, if exhaust fumes are detected on the yacht,
take immediate action to dissipate these fumes.
•
Treat symptoms of seasickness as possible CO poisoning. Get the person into fresh air immediately. Seek
medical attention—unless you’re sure it’s not CO.
•
Install and maintain CO alarms inside your yacht. Do not ignore any alarm. Replace alarms as recommended
by the alarm manufacturer.
•
Follow the checklists provided on the next page.
•
Get a Vessel Safety Check.
