Although the occurrence is rare, on a very calm day, swimmers and
passengers in an open area of a stationary boat that contains, or is
near, a running engine may be exposed to a hazardous level of
carbon monoxide.
1. Examples of poor ventilation while the boat is stationary:
a -
Operating the engine when the boat is moored in a
confined space
b -
Mooring close to another boat that has its engine
operating
2. Examples of poor ventilation while the boat is moving:

UMPING
Operating recreational boats over waves and wake is a natural part
of boating. However, when this activity is done with sufficient speed
to force the boat hull partially or completely out of the water, certain
hazards arise, particularly when the boat enters the water.
5450
The primary concern is the boat changing direction while in the
midst of the jump. In such case, the landing may cause the boat to
veer violently in a new direction. Such a sharp change in direction
can cause occupants to be thrown out of their seats, or out of the
boat.
!
WARNING
Wave or wake jumping can cause serious injury or death from
occupants being thrown within or out of the boat. Avoid wave or
wake jumping whenever possible.
