Carbon Monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless gas produced when a carbon-based fuel, (i.e. gas, propane, charcoal) 🔥burns. Only a few breaths can kill! Smell exhaust? CO is present. When boating🚤 be aware of CO & know the signs of CO poisoning. youtube.com/watch?v=8CsEupJ9…

No Wake Zones are there for a reason. Reducing your speed helps protect swimmers, paddlers, and wildlife, keeps docks and boats safe from damage, and protects shorelines from erosion.

Most people assume water will break their fall. Reality? At high speeds, water can hit as hard as concrete. A single cliff jump can result in life-changing injuries or death, whether from the force of impact or unseen rocks & debris below the surface. youtube.com/watch?v=O39cHLRl…
