Carbon monoxide should be a concern of every boater, particularly
boaters with gasoline fueled engines and generators.

Seldom does a year go by when there aren't fatalities directly
attributable to CO emmissions in gasoline exhaust. Gasoline generators
have been particualry worrisome. Generators are often running when a
boat is at a dock or at anchor where the vessel is more likely to
become surrounded by a cloud of exhaust gasses than when underway.

Boaters without gasoline engines may be at risk from the emissions of
boaters nearby. In 2003, there were 160 incidents of
"outside-the-cabin" Co poisonings, resulting in 48 deaths. At Lake
Havasu, Arizona, over Memorial Day weekend, 2004, shoreshide and
on-water CO levels were so dangerous that the park wardens had to be
removed for their personal safety.

Westerbeke developed a new line of gasoline generators designed to all
but eliminate CO emmissions. While there may be no "healthy" level of
CO, various government and industrial safety organizations have
established limits, based on a part-per-million measurement, for
"acceptably safe" exposure.

A traditional gasoline generator emits CO at a rate of about 10,000
ppm. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health,
(NIOSH), recommends that workers should not be exposed to more
concentrations greater than 35 ppm measured during a time-weighted work
shift and has set a ceiling limit of 200 ppm which should never be
exceeded. The American Conference of Government Industrial Hygienists
(ACGIH) recommends an 8 hour shift average of no more than 25 ppm, and
discourages exposure above 125 ppm.
OSHA has established a maximum 8-hour work shift limit of 50 ppm.
Exhaust from typical gaoline powered marine generator is 200 times
higher than the OSHA recommended level and 400 times higher than the
benchmark extablished by ACGIH.

Westerbeke's new Safe-CO (tm) Series Generators utilize a "constant
speed" EFI technology and an electronic governor, among other
improvements, to produce gasoline generators that emit almost no CO.
Westerbeke's 5.0kW generator runs at a constant 1800 rpm (not 3600)
under full or partial load and produces CO at levels of less than 3
ppm. Not 10,000, not 3,000, not 300, not 30- but 3 ppm or only about 6%
of the concentration that OSHA considers acceptable in a workplace
environment. An additional benefit of the 1800 rpm operation is that
the 5.0kW generator can be installed without a sound shield.

Even with one of Westerbeke's Safe-CO generators, nobody will be
deliberately piping the genset exhaust aboard. A proper exhaust system,
properly maintained, will continue to be crucial. Even so, boaters with
a Westerbeke Safe-Co generator can sleep just a bit easier with the
knowledge that nearly all risk of CO poisoning from generator emissions
has been eliminated by Westerbeke's new clean burning technology.

(Send me a legit e-mail address if you would like to view a video file
of a Safe-CO generator being electronically tested at the Westerbeke
quality assurance laboratory. I'll send a video file by return email.)

Put an anonymous name to this post and one would consider it spam. Why
shouldn't we look at it that way with your name behind it Chuck?

But if I may?? before you read; take a look at these passages from an
article about the bent union rip off, who rip off other unionists,
(honour among .......???)

ULLICO
Union Pension-Owned Company Set to Lose $20-$30 Million
Its stock windfall from the bankrupt Global Crossing now gone,
Georgine, former head of the AFL-CIO's Bldg. &
Construction Trades Dept., blamed chief financial officer John Grelle for
the losses. Days later, Grelle resigned in protest, blasting Georgine for
not selling the company jet, which costs $3 million a year.

N.B. Now did you see that!!!!!??? Harry as you'll see below "claims"
his wife has a corporate jet!!!! He's making these stories up as the
jealous junior mail person in the PR dept!!!!

There was no indication if Grelle also called on Georgine and other union
boss directors of Ullico to return the more than $6 million they made in
inside deals of Ullico stock in 2000 and 2001. In the late 90s, Ullico was
able to buy Global Crossing stock at its initial public offering (IPO)
price. By 1999, a $7.6 million investment had mushroomed to $335 million.
After pricing its own stock at a set $25 per share, Ullico directors changed
the rules, setting a new price at the beginning of each year.

So these rip offs were raking it in at the expense of the workers in
many unions & I'll suggest that the fantasy boats that Harry claims are
HIS OWN are in fact the play things of the execs of the insurance CO, I
also suggest that's his only involvement is as the boat boy for his
union bosses!!!


Global
Crossing spiraled toward bankruptcy, and Ullico's stock took a tumble, the
Ullico directors who had bought their stock at $54 a share were given two
opportunities to sell it back, the first time for $146 a share, the second
time for $75. As Georgine and the other Ullico officials made $6.7 million
in profits, the union pension funds that own Ullico could not take advantage
of the same deal.

And clearly they have a very well practiced liar in the PR dept mail

Once one becomes so listed one can count on being blasted for every opinion

If a listed person is for it she is automatically against it.

Rational discussion with a deranged person is impossible and simply a waste

proves her
wrong, makes the serious sierra list.

Once one becomes so listed one can count on being blasted for every
opinion
expressed. The K will always accuse the listed soul of lying and
spamming.
If a listed person is for it she is automatically against it.

Rational discussion with a deranged person is impossible and simply a
waste
of time. For that reason I choose not to engage The K in a
discussion.

If she was not so deranged she'd actually be funny.

I'm completely stumped. Does anybody remember the last time K had
anything *positive* to say, on any subject? There must have been one or
two ocassions in the last few years- but I struggle to bring any of
them to mind.
