SECTION 1 • SAFETY

290 Sundancer

A. PFD CLASSIFICATIONS

Off-Shore Life Jacket (Type I) –

most buoyant, it is designed to turn

an unconscious person face up;

used in all types of waters where

rescue may be slow, particularly in

cold or rough conditions.

Near-Shore Life Vest (Type II)–

“keyhole” vest with ﬂotation-ﬁlled

head and neck support is also

designed to turn a person face

up, but the turning action is not as

pronounced; used in calm, inland

waters or where quick rescue is

likely.

Flotation Aid (Type III) – vest is

designed so conscious wearers

can turn face up; often designed for

comfort while engaged in sports

such as skiing.

Throwable Devices (Type IV)–

horseshoe buoys, ring buoys and

buoyant cushions are designed to

be grasped, not worn.

Special-Use Devices (Type V)–

sailboat harnesses, white-water

vests, ﬂoat coats, and hybrid vests

which have minimum inherent

buoyancy and an inflatable

chamber.

Before purchasing PFDs, ensure

that there is an attached tag indicating they are

approved by the U.S. Coast Guard or by your

national boating law enforcement agency.

Children and nonswimmers must wear PFDs at

all times when aboard. All passengers and crew

should wear them. A loose PFD is often useless in

an emergency.

(FIG. 1.4.5)

5. LIFESAVING EQUIPMENT

Even strong swimmers can tire quickly in the water

and drown due to exhaustion, hypothermia, or both.

The buoyancy provided by a personal ﬂotation

device (PFD) will allow the person who has fallen

overboard to remain aﬂoat with far less effort and

heat loss, extending survival time necessary to ﬁnd

and retrieve them.

Boat operators are required to carry one wearable

personal ﬂotation device (Type I, II, III or V) for every

person on board. Boats must also have at least one

throwable device (Type IV).

The law requires that PFD’s must be readily

accessible, if not worn. “Readily accessible” means

removed from storage bags and unbuckled. But,

children and nonswimmers must wear PFDs at all

times when aboard. It is common sense to have

everyone on board wearing PFDs. A throwable

device must also be right at hand and ready to

toss.

A. CARBON MONOXIDE MONITOR

Your boat has a carbon monoxide (CO) monitor

mounted inside the boat . The CO monitor is an

electronic instrument that detects CO. When

there is a buildup of CO, the monitor will alert the

occupants by a ﬂashing DANGER light and alarm.

The CO monitor is wired through a breaker on the

Main Distribution Panel (MDP).

It is extremely important that you become totally

familiar with your CO monitor and its functions.

Read and understand the CO monitor information

and operating instructions located in your Owner’s

Manual Packet.

• Inspect the exhaust system regularly. (See

Section 8, Required Inspection, Service and

Maintenance.

If CO poisoning is suspected, have the victim breath

fresh air deeply. If breathing stops, resuscitate. A

victim often revives, then relapses because organs

are damaged by lack of oxygen. Seek immediate

medical attention.
