Certain precautions must be carefully and
completely observed every time a boat is fueled,
even with diesel fuel. Diesel fuel is nonexplosive
but it will burn.
A. G
ENERAL
•
Fuel during daylight.
•
Fire extinguisher – close at hand.
•
Mooring – boat tied securely to fueling pier.
•
Crew – at least one knowledgeable person
present.
•
Passengers – unnecessary people off the boat.
•
Engines – stopped.
•
Electrical equipment, including blowers – power
off.
•
Close all hatches, doors and keep engine
compartment closed to prevent fumes from
entering the cabin or cockpit areas.
•
Smoking material – extinguished.
•
Inboard tanks – grounded.
•
Filler pipe – marked DIESEL.
•
Fuel nozzle – in contact with filler pipe to prevent
static sparks.
•
Avoid spills – fill less than rated capacity of tank;
allow for fuel expansion.
•
Trim – fuel weight distributed equally.

ANK
•
Check the fill plate label to ensure that fuel is
placed ONLY in the fuel tank. The fuel fill plates
are located on the port and starboard aft
gunwales (Figure 3.3.1).
•
Know your fuel capacity and consumption.
Record the amount of fuel used since your last
fill up, and compute the engine’s hourly fuel
usage. As a fuel gauge backup check, deduct
the average hourly fuel usage from fuel tank
capacity.
•
Observe the “Rule of Thirds”: one-third fuel for
trip out, one-third for return and one-third for
reserve.
•
Allow an additional 15 percent fuel reserve when
operating in rough seas.
•
Listen as the tank fills and stop adding fuel before
it spills from the fuel fill opening.
C. A

ILLING
•
Windows, doors, hatches - open.
•
DO NOT wash spilled fuel overboard. Wipe up
any spill with rags or paper towels and dispose
of them properly on shore.
•
Sniff test - if fuel fumes remain, operate blowers
until fumes are gone.
•
Fuel tank - secure filler cap.
6. B
OARDING
•
DO NOT overload the boat. Refer to builder’s
plate located at the helm (See Figure 1.6.1).
