Safety
Fire Extinguishers
Your boat is equipped with at least two 2¾-pound
United States Coast Guard approved Type ABC fire
extinguishers. Each extinguisher is UL Rated 1-A:10-
BC. This rating indicates that each extinguisher can
be used to fight Class A, B, and C fires. These
classes include fires involving wood, cloth, gasoline,
oil, grease, and live electrical equipment.
The fire extinguishers are mounted in locations that
allow quick access in case of a fire emergency.
Be
familiar with these locations.
Read and understand
the instructions on the extinguisher label and in the
manufacturer’s instruction booklet located in your
owner’s bag.
Formulate a fire plan in advance that will help you
evaluate your risk and response in case of an on-
board fire emergency.
Fires
Most marine fires result from spilled gasoline or oil
accumulating in the bilge. Careful use of on-board fire
extinguishers should control small fires.
Direct the fire extinguisher output toward the base of
the flames in a sweeping motion. Check carefully and
verify that the fire has been extinguished. Evaluate
the damage and get assistance immediately.
Larger fires involving the boat’s fuel tank might result
in explosion and complete destruction of the boat.
Formulate a fire plan in advance that will help you
decide if you can fight the fire or if you should abandon
the boat.
!
WARNING
Gasoline floats on water. If you abandon the
boat, swim up wind or up current from the boat
to avoid burning gasoline that might spread on
the surface of the water.
