Secure the boat to the dock with adequate moorings.

Turn off engine and any equipment having brush type (spark producing) contacts.

Close cabin, doors and hatches so fumes don't enter boat.

Disembark all persons not necessary for the fueling operation.


Have a fire extinguisher close by.
While Fueling-

Keep nozzle in contact with fill opening to minimize chance of sparks.

