Dealer Service • • • • • Ask your dealer to explain all systems before taking delivery of your boat. Your dealer is your key to service.
Chapter 1: Welcome Aboard! Safety Standards DANGER! DANGER ! PERSONAL SAFETY HAZARD! DO NOT allow anyone to ride on parts of the boat not designated for such use. Sitting on seat backs, lounging on the forward deck, bow riding, gunwale riding or occupying the transom platform while underway is especially hazardous and will cause personal injury or death. DANGER! DANGER ! PERSONAL SAFETY HAZARD! ALWAYS secure the anchor and other loose objects before getting underway.
Chapter 1: Welcome Aboard! Qualified Maintenance ! WARNING! To maintain the integrity and safety of your boat, allow only qualified personnel to perform maintenance on, or in any way modify: The steering system, propulsion system, engine control system, fuel system, environmental control system, electrical system or navigational system.
Chapter 1: Welcome Aboard! Carbon Monoxide (CO) ! DANGER! • Carbon monoxide gas (CO) is colorless, odorless, tasteless, and extremely dangerous. • All engines, generators, and fuel burning appliances produce CO as exhaust. • Prolonged exposure to low concentrations or very quick exposure to high concentrations will cause BRAIN DAMAGE or DEATH. • Teak surfing, dragging, or water skiing within 20 feet of a moving watercraft can be fatal.
Chapter 1: Welcome Aboard! Where and How CO Can Accumulate Stationary Conditions That Increase CO Accumulations Include: A. Using engine, generator, or other fuel burning device when boat is moored in a confined space. B. Mooring too close to another boat that is using its engine, generator, or other fuel burning device. To correct stationary situations A and/or B: • Close all windows, portlights and hatches. • If possible, move your boat away from source of CO.
Chapter 1: Welcome Aboard! Trip Checklist ❏ Make sure you know where the exhaust outlets are located on your boat. ❏ Educate all passengers about the symptoms of CO poisoning and where CO may accumulate. ❏ When docked, or rafted with another boat, be aware of exhaust emissions from the other boat. ❏ Confirm that water flows from the exhaust outlet when the engines and generator are started. ❏ Listen for any change in exhaust sound, which could indicate an exhaust component failure.
