Engine Room Recon

Safety Down Below Is Key

The most dangerous place on a boat is the engine room. This is the place where things can go seriously wrong, very quickly. Throw flammable substances and a variety of moving parts into the mix, and the engine room is a veritable breeding ground for disaster and injury, but, with special care, the possibility of physical injury is never fully alleviated but it can be dramatically reduced.

If you’ve owned a boat for any length of time, picking up inconsistencies in engine noise will become second nature and sooner or later, you’ll have to venture into the depths of the engine room. Think of yourself as an ER specialist and the engine is your patient who needs medical attention. When venturing into the engine room, the most important thing to do is to protect yourself.
