Personal Flotation Devices (PFDs) Federal regulations require that you have at least one Coast Guard ap- proved 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.

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 ex- amples 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 ac- cumulation within cabin and cockpit areas.
Page 20
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.
