FIRE EXTINGUISHING SYSTEM
Some stern drive boats are equipped with an optional
Automatic Fire Extinguishing System for an engine
compartment fire. The system is automatically
actuated when temperatures reach or exceed a preset
limit.
When actuation occurs, a loud popping sound may be
heard followed by “rushing” air sound.
When a
discharge occurs, immediately shut down all
electrical and mechanical systems including
engine, and powered ventilation (Blowers).
Do not open the engine hatch at this time
! This
feeds oxygen to the fire and flashback can occur. Allow
the extinguishing agent to “soak” the compartment for
at least fifteen (15) minutes, and wait for hot metals
and fuels to cool before inspecting for cause or
damage.
Fire extinguishing agents and fire by-product fumes are toxic; do
not breath fire fumes. Accidental discharge can be dangerous
and may cause serious injury. do not attempt to service the
system unless qualified to do so.
If fire is still active after system discharges: All occupants should
immediately put on PFDs (Personal Flotation Devices) and get off
the boat.
