Carbon monoxide gas (CO) is colorless,
odorless and extremely dangerous. All
engines and fuel burning appliances
produce CO as exhaust. Direct and
prolonged exposure to CO will cause
BRAIN DAMAGE or DEATH. Signs of
exposure to CO include nausea,
dizziness and drowsiness.
Failure to inspect the fuel system could
allow fuel leakage to go undetected,
becoming a fire or explosion hazard.

●
Fume detector
●
Engine’s cooling, exhaust and lubrication
systems

It is very important that both the engine and

necessary, before operating the boat. Also, all of
the accessory exhaust systems must be in
proper operating condition.
