ometry; hatch, window  and door openings; ventilation
openings; proximity to other structures; wind direction;
vessel speed; and a multitude of other  variables.  The
technical information included in this section is to inform
the boat owner of possible cause and effects of carbon
monoxide. This information has been reprinted with per-

NOTICE
The boat owner should be aware that other fac-
tors may contribute to carbon monoxide accu-
mulation. The most common ones are listed in
this section.   If  a person is  exhibiting carbon
monoxide-typesymptoms(Referto  B-2E Symp-
toms), be sure  to take the necessary precau-
tions as prescribed later in this section.
C.   How a Person is Affected by Carbon
Monoxide
Carbon monoxide is absorbed by the lungs and reacts
withbloodhemoglobintoformcarboxyhemoglobin,which
reduces the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood. The
result is a lack of oxygen for the tissues with the subse-
quent tissue death and, if prolonged, death of the in-
dividual.
NOTICE
Boats fueled by diesel have limited carbon mon-
oxide present in the exhaust in comparison  to
gasoline engine  exhaust.  However,  the boat
owner should still be aware of the causes and
effects of carbon monoxide which may occur in
different boating situations.
D.   Effects of Carbon Monoxide
Carbon monoxide in high concentrations can be fatal in
a matter of minutes. Lower concentrations must not be
ignored because the effects of exposure to CO are cu-
mulative and can be just as lethal.
A.   Properties and Characteristics of Carbon Mon-
oxide
Certain health related  problems and age will increase
the effects of CO. People who smoke or are exposed to

less gas.  It is commonly referred to as CO.

ticularly susceptible to  an increase in the  effects from

the blood absorbs CO.
NOTICE
E.   Symptoms
DO NOT  rely on the  use of  smell or sight  of
other gases to detect CO, because it diffuses in
the air much more rapidly than easily detectable
(visible and odorous) gases.
One or more of the following symptoms can signal the
adverse effect of CO accumulation:

Watering and itchy eyes
Flushed appearance
Throbbing temples
Inattentiveness
Inability to think coherently
Ringing in the ears
Tightness across the chest
Headache
B.   What Makes Carbon Monoxide
Any time  a material containing carbon  burns such as
gasoline, natural gas, oil, propane, coal, or wood, CO is
produced.
