Which is a measure to take against carbon monoxide accumulation on boats?

  1. Avoiding the use of life jackets

  2. Screening passengers for health conditions

  3. Schedule regular engine and exhaust system inspections

  4. Only use electric engines

The correct answer is: Schedule regular engine and exhaust system inspections

Carbon monoxide is a deadly gas that can accumulate on any boat with an engine. Avoiding the use of life jackets would not be a viable measure as they are essential for safety. Screening passengers for health conditions would not prevent carbon monoxide accumulation, and would also not be a practical measure for every boater to take. Only using electric engines may reduce the risk of carbon monoxide, but it is not a guaranteed solution as electric engines can still produce carbon monoxide. Therefore, the best measure to take against carbon monoxide accumulation on boats is to schedule regular engine and exhaust system inspections. This allows for any potential issues to be identified and fixed before they become a danger to those on board.
