You have a beautiful soul Chris. You hear about two strangers passing away and your first inclination is to educate, essentially, a bunch of strangers on the issue to prevent further loss of human life. And on top of all of it you had every opportunity to include an affiliate link to make some cash for yourself but didn’t, and encouraged everyone to support their local small business. We’ve never met but you’re a great man, just wanted you to know that.

Thank you very much David. I care about people and it is a huge privelege to be able to share things like this with others. Best regards, Chris

@rustysailor4672 3 года назад

Good advice. But once you installed it, do not let the sense of added safety lead you to neglect the basic safety precautions you mention. If you rely on the device warning you of high CO-levels you may die on the first malfunction of the device.

@SailingBritaly 3 года назад

Yes absolutely - ventilation is the number one priority and then any CO detector needs to be tested regularly and the batteries kept charged. Chris

@Paul_Crosbie 3 года назад

Good video as usual Chris, hope you and the family are back on the boat as soon as possible!

@SailingBritaly 3 года назад

🌟 Hi Paul, thank you! Yes we do to - there are some serious withdrawal symptoms going on at the moment. Oh to live in a sane world again... Very best regards, Chris, Rossella & Emma 😊

Helpful info thanks 👍

@spillbeans8434 3 года назад

Standalone CO detectors are cheap. No boat should be without one. As I found out, they also go beserk with hydrogen gassing from charging batteries, but venting that off is no bad thing either.

Great video as always Chris but this is a very important video for a number of reasons. So many boat ears are fitting the cheaper Chinese diesel heaters in their boats and the exhaust silencer is totally inadequate as it is designed for trucks and to be outside. I commented on a well known channel when they were fitting one and I was shouted down as a scare monger and told a bit of exhaust sealant can make these cheap silencers good to go. I was saved by my carbon monoxide alarm. Bit of a long story but even with good ventilation a naked flame that the gets out of control can still raise levels to danger point. I was awoken by my alarm and had time to remove the flame and ventilate the boat further. I have two alarms now and a smoke alarm. When I had an alarm in my camper it was interesting to see the alarm go from green to amber quite quickly when the gas hob was on and then more ventilation was required to bring the levels down. Scary stuff but kudos to you for doing such an informative video. Andy UK

@maurol.3731 3 года назад

Bravo Chris, a video that takes its cue from a tragedy to try to avoid others is pure practical intelligence. The dangers of carbon monoxide are described in every owner's manual of most boats (especially American and UK...) but unfortunately many have never read one. A good CO detector costs less than a mobile phone cover, but unfortunately it is not trendy enough ... Stay safe, ciao

@SailingBritaly 3 года назад

Grazie Mauro, hopefuly we can help someone avoid problems. Fair winds, Chris

@Sailingon 3 года назад

You get people like my friends brother who argued, it's never bothered me before. He died the next weekend on his cruiser after using his cooker to heat the boat.

@SailingBritaly 3 года назад

Thank you for sharing this sobering story Samantha. R.I.P. to your friend's brother.

@cybereye2 2 года назад

Thank you for posting this important video. I am planning to fit a wood burning stove to my boat to extend sailing during the cold months. Because of watching your video I'll be also fitting a carbon monoxide alarm and giving careful consideration to ventilation when fitting the stove.

@warrenthorp 2 года назад

Thanks for making the vid Chris. I’ll certainly be changing my behaviour a bit on board as a result of it. 👍

@andystamp1414 3 года назад

Nice one Chris. Have two on my boat and obviously smoke detectors as well. In a previous job I had to attend a few fatal fires. Each one of them was preventable or escapable if simple alarms were installed and maintained. Some may find this video less exciting than pure sailing content but I'm hoping everyone who sees it reviews their own homes and boats and workshops etc. etc 👍🍻

@SailingBritaly 3 года назад

🌟 Hi Andy, thank you! We prefer to make more joyful content, but raising awareness about things like this can make a real difference, so hopefully some people will take action based on this and perhaps this video will help other families avoid this kind of tragedy. We are probably the only family we know with a smoke alarm in Italy - they are extremely rare here (there is a lot less wood used in construction with much more concrete being used, but of course there is always the potential of being harm from smoke from a fire regardless). Very best regards, Chris, Rossella & Emma 😊

@rayhsetwo8594 3 года назад

There's a Facebook group on using those Chinese diesel heaters, those silencers are known on there to leak through the weld seams, a few owners I know ditch the silencer altogether and run the exhaust pipe in one run to outside by buying additional one length of pipe. The increase in noise without the silencer is barely noticeable. Mainly because it's not a multicylinder compression engine but in essence a blower.

@SailingBritaly 3 года назад

Thanks for sharing Ray 👍

@guy.h 3 года назад

Very good video Chris full of useful and potentially life-saving information. Warnings about CO and the potential dangers is something that is certainly missing in the majority of DIY videos on here

@SailingBritaly 3 года назад

🌟 Hi Guy, thank you very much! If we can help just one family avoid suffering a tragedy like this then we will be very happy indeed. We hope you are getting excited to get stuck into your new boat! Very best regards, Chris, Rossella & Emma

@gradowik 3 года назад

had this issues at home (natural gas heater in bathroom plus dirty chimney). Poisoning lead to poor decision making. When dizzy it's too late to analyze. Just get fresh air, walk till You are reasonable again. The only real answer to the danger is ventilation. Get into a habbit of changing air in any enclosed space. Ventilate, ventilate and once more ventilate. This will solve even more problems like steam, both CO and CO2, also any smells or other gases. Just understand volume of the space and estimate that 20 cubic meter of space (10 square metes of floor/ceiling in a building) can give You enough air only for a night so change this air to fresh one. Treat every combustion/heating device as a person in this calculation and You are most likely to stay on a safe side. (proper calculations requires fuel consumption of said device but unless it's an engine or huge stove, device=person works fine)

@SailingBritaly 3 года назад

Thank you for sharing Dominik - I'm glad you escaped a worse outcome and we can all learn from incidents like this. Cheers, Chris 👍

Diesel Stove / heater common on boats. fantastic source of carbon monoxide. gas cooker, almost every boat has a gas cooker.

@SailingBritaly 3 года назад

@geoffwright7110 3 года назад

Thanks for advice. Very timely as we head into southern winter and gas heaters need testing and monitors installed. A silent killer . cheers

@SailingBritaly 3 года назад

@jasonleuschen5283 3 года назад

The CO detector you want averages CO levels over time, so a temporary high CO condition (ex lighting your stove) doesn't trigger a nuisance alarm every time. Further, it will also protect you against constant exposure to a low level of CO, which can be as deadly since it takes a long time for your body to clear CO from your blood. Ideally you also get a sealed detector with a five-year battery and hit the test button regularly to make sure it's still working.

@CraigOverend 3 года назад

Wouldn't it be great if every marine diesel heater, engine or cooker included a CO alarm in the box...

@SailingBritaly 3 года назад

👍

@SailingPuffin 3 года назад

I was testing my diesel heater on my boat and still put a sensor in. Once I removed the heater after testing I have the sensor to my boat neighbour who had a solid fuel heater in his boat and no sensor! Good advice as usual from your channel!

@SailingBritaly 3 года назад

Cheers Archie :-)

@filmmakingmad 3 года назад

Thank you for highlighting this far too common cause of death. I was very suprised that the boat I purchased a few years ago had a smoke alarm but NO CO monitor! I fitted one as fast as I could! If your video just saves one life it will be well worth it.

@fransdriesen1311 3 года назад

Besides the good understanding of what CO is all about, the good required ventilation it is also very important to start out with very reliable, durable and highly tested equipment. Quite often, I do read that Boaters are installing the cheapest (mostly Made in China) they can find.. The old saying of "pay me now or pay me later" (your death) is quite fitting..

@lorenzom7237 3 года назад

Ottima presentazione Chris , il mio allarme suona spesso dopo che a cena abbiamo cucinato con l'Origo... Impressionante quanto poco gas sia sufficiente ad ucciderci.

@SailingBritaly 3 года назад

Grazie Lorenzo, buon vento! 👍

@TheWaterbouy88 3 года назад

The $15 CO detector is NOT what anyone needs. You need a LOW LEVEL CO DETECTOR. Just Google “LOW LEVEL CO DETECTOR”. These devices warn you before the CO level gets dangerous.

I really liked Your Videos But the Tone Has become increasingly more sensational and patronising. You may get some more viewers but sadly you may lose some. I did prefer your original English slight understatement. Please don’t be offended, just take it as constructive feedback. Best wishes and good sailing

@SailingBritaly 3 года назад

I'm sorry you feel that way and I appreciate all feedback. Cheers and fair winds, Chris
