engines are running.
DO NOT operate the engine in a confined space or while the boat
is tethered to another vessel.

shortly after the engine has been running. Carbon monoxide may
be trapped under the cover. It is important to remove the cover
and/or ventilate the area before going under the boat cover.

platform dragging as a dangerous and hazardous activity which
should be prohibited, as it can result in injury or death.
In the event that someone exhibits the symptoms of carbon
monoxide exposure (nausea, headache, dizziness, or
drowsiness), have them breathe fresh air and, if necessary,
immediately seek medical attention.
