lmo2004_005a.book Page 10 Thursday, August 14, 2003 12:28 PM SAFETY Your safety and that of your passengers and fellow boaters is YOUR responsibility. Before launching your boat, you should completely read and understand this Operator’s Guide, product warnings and labels, the Safety Videocassette and other information provided with your craft or by your dealer. Heed and follow all warnings, safety precautions and operating procedures.
lmo2004_005a.book Page 11 Thursday, August 14, 2003 12:28 PM – Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide (CO), which can cause injury or death if inhaled in sufficient quantities. Do not operate the craft in a confined area or allow CO to accumulate in or around the craft, or in enclosed or sheltered areas. – Combustion engines need air to operate; consequently this craft can not be totally watertight.
lmo2004_005a.book Page 12 Thursday, August 14, 2003 12:28 PM Operators and Passengers... – Never operate a boat while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. It is a Federal offense. Allow only qualified drivers to operate your boat. Remember that sun, wind, alcohol, drugs, fatigue or illness may impair your judgement and reaction time. – At least one passenger should be able to operate the boat in case the operator is unexpectedly unable to do so.
lmo2004_005a.book Page 13 Thursday, August 14, 2003 12:28 PM Personal Flotation Devices (PFDs) Federal regulations require that you have at least one Coast Guard approved personal flotation device (PFD) for each person in a recreational boat and require that all children under 13 years of age wear a PFD at all times when the boat is underway, except when below deck or in an enclosed cabin.
lmo2004_005a.book Page 14 Thursday, August 14, 2003 12:28 PM PFD Type III, Wearable allows wearers to place themselves in a vertical or slightly backward position. It does not turn the wearer. It maintains the wearer in a vertical or slightly backward position and has no tendency to turn the wearer face down. It has the same buoyancy as a Type Il PFD and may be appropriate in areas where other people are commonly involved in water activities. PFD Type V, Wearable must be worn.
lmo2004_005a.book Page 15 Thursday, August 14, 2003 12:28 PM – For their own safety and the safety of others, all non-swimmers, poor swimmers, and small children should wear PFD’s at all times whether the boat is stationary or moving. – Check the PFD frequently to make sure that it is not torn, that flotation pads have no leaks, and that all seams and joints are securely sewn. – If a PFD contains kapok, the kapok fibers may become waterlogged and lose their buoyancy after the vinyl inserts are punctured.
lmo2004_005a.book Page 16 Thursday, August 14, 2003 12:28 PM Visual Distress Signal Devices Visual distress signal devices approved by the U.S. Coast Guard are required on all recreational boats operating on coastal waters and on boats owned in the United States when they are operating on the high seas. Coastal waters include territorial seas and those waters directly connected to the Great Lakes and the territorial seas up to a point where the waters are less than two miles (3.2 km) wide.
lmo2004_005a.book Page 17 Thursday, August 14, 2003 12:28 PM BASIC GEAR – flashlight – mooring lines – compass – oar or paddle – distress signals – first aid kit – dock fenders – VHF radio – EPIRB (Electronic Position Indicating Radio Beacon) – boat hook – extra warm clothing – charts – sunblock – tow line – second anchor and line – dewatering device (pump or bailer) – emergency supply of drinking water and food.
lmo2004_005a.book Page 18 Thursday, August 14, 2003 12:28 PM Carbon Monoxide Accumulation Following are examples of possible situations where CO may accumulate within your boat while docked, anchored, or underway. Become familiar with these examples and their precautions to prevent personal injury or death. WARNING Exhaust Fumes! Generator or hull exhaust from other vessels while either docked or anchored can emit poisonous CO gas and cause excessive accumulation within cabin and cockpit areas.
lmo2004_005a.book Page 19 Thursday, August 14, 2003 12:28 PM While underway, CO concentrations can increase by backdrafting or “the station wagon effect”. Backdrafting is caused by factors such as relative wind direction, speed, or the bow being too high. To prevent this, open canvas whenever possible to provide positive airflow through the hull. Boat houses, seawalls, and other boats in close proximity or confined areas can contribute to increased CO levels.
lmo2004_005a.book Page 20 Thursday, August 14, 2003 12:28 PM Lanyard Stop Switch Safe Boating Practices This safety device automatically stops the engine if the lanyard is attached to the operator and the operator falls from the control station. Refer to the engine manual for detailed information about using this switch. The stop switch incorporates a shutoff switch, switch clip, lanyard, and lanyard clip. The lanyard clip must be securely attached to the operator’s PFD, clothing, arm, or leg.
lmo2004_005a.book Page 21 Thursday, August 14, 2003 12:28 PM – Do not use the boat in weather or sea conditions beyond the skill or experience of the operator or the comfortable capability of the boat or passengers. – Be sure at least one other passenger is familiar with the operation and safety aspects of the boat in case of an emergency. – Make sure that passengers and gear do not obstruct the operator's view or ability to move.
lmo2004_005a.book Page 22 Thursday, August 14, 2003 12:28 PM Know the waters in which the craft is to be operated. Current, tides, rapids, hidden obstacles, wakes and waves etc. can affect safe operation. It is not advisable to operate the craft in rough or inclement weather. Remember these Rules of the Road Know the Right of Way Rules Generally keep to your right and safely avoid other craft by keeping a safe distance from other craft, people and objects.
lmo2004_005a.book Page 23 Thursday, August 14, 2003 12:28 PM – While your craft has the capacity of operating at high speeds, it is strongly recommended that high speed operation only be applied when ideal conditions exist and are permitted. Higher speed operation requires a higher degree of skill and increases the risk of severe injuries. – In shallow water, proceed with caution and at very low speeds. Grounding or abrupt stops may result in injury.
lmo2004_005a.book Page 24 Thursday, August 14, 2003 12:28 PM Safe Boating Courses The local U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary and the U.S. Power Squadrons offer comprehensive safe boating classes several times a year.
