Boating and Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Safty

Thursday, Mar. 28th 2013 9:56 AM

Many boats are equipped with carbon monoxide (CO) detectors, but the CO detectors on many older boats are susceptible to false alarms and might have been disconnected; other CO detectors may appear to work when in fact they may not sound an alarm in the presence of medium to high levels of CO gases. The Coast Guard advises the owners of all inboard and sterndrive powered boats built prior to 1998 to inspect their CO detectors. If the CO detector on your boat has been disconnected, or if the exterior cover of the device does not bear the word “marine,” the Coast Guard urges immediate replacement with newer CO detection technology.
