Fire Extinguisher
All fire extinguishers used on marine boats must be classified to extinguish type B
fires (gasoline, oil or grease). The size and number of required fire extinguishers
depend on the size of your boat. The two type B fire extinguishers commonly used
are B-I and B-II. Type B fire extinguishers are classified by the different
extinguishing compound amounts used in each.
Check the fire extinguisher condition and pressure gauge regularly, if not before
every trip, to ensure that the fire extinguisher is in good operating condition and is
fully charged. If the fire extinguisher is damaged or not properly pressurized,
replace it.
For specific on-board requirements, see U.S. Coast Guard Minimum On-Board
Personal Safety Equipment Required on page 3-32 .
