Carbon Monoxide and Drowning
 
The cause of many unexplained drownings in lakes has been discovered recently!  Healthy children and adults have drowned because they inhaled lethal levels of carbon monoxide (CO).  This CO poisoning results from breathing boat engine and/or on-board generator exhaust.  Some exposures occurred over several minutes; in other cases even just a few breaths were fatal.  Hundreds of such cases now have been described nationwide.  Read how to prevent future incidents.
