Proximity to other boats.
G. Inspection
Look and listen for leaks in the exhaust systems of both
the generator and propulsion engine(s). Look for discol-
oration around joints in the system (water leaks, carbon,
stains, etc.).
Orient the boat for maximum dissipation of the exhaust
or DO NOT run the boat or boat equipment for extended
periods under these conditions. See Figure B7.

Make sure all exhaust clamps are in place and se-
cured.
