Attention!
Protect yourself from this silent killer!
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a gas that you can’t see, taste or smell. Just a few breaths can cause brain damage and death. Check your boat for places where CO may present a danger, such as near engine and generator exhausts.
Explosion Protection
Always use certified marine parts
Protect yourself, your boat and your guests from fire and explosion. Run your blower for at least four minutes before starting your engine. Use only ignition protected parts - automotive parts and marine parts are not the same!
Lifejackets: They float, you don't. Wear Them!
Lifejackets and PFDs
Children survive boating accidents more often than their parents. Why? Children wear flotation devices ...Wear your Lifejacket!

Used Boat? Have it Surveyed!
Be a safe boater
Over time, your boat may develop mechanical, electrical, structural or fuel system problems. Left unnoticed, they can result in loss of life and property. Make sure your boat is safe. Get it inspected by an accredited marine surveyor or technician.
