Hand-held fire extinguishers must be serviced annually. Extinguishers more than ten
years old are not approved unless the pressure chamber has been re-tested. When
changing hand-held fire extinguishers, they should be replaced by a device with a
minimum fire rating of 8A68B.
Ensure that the fire extinguishing equipment is easily accessible when the boat is
loaded. Tell all crew members the location of the equipment and how to operate it.
Keep the bilge clear of fuel and regularly check for possible fuel leaks. The smell of
petrol is a sure sign of a fuel leak.
