FIRE EXTINGUISHERS
As the boat owner, you are responsible for making sure you have

be approved by the U.S. Coast Guard.
Boats longer than 26 feet and shorter than 40 feet: Two Type B-1 or
at least one Type B-2 portable hand Extinguishers. If your boat has
a fixed fire extinguishing system approved by the U.S. Coast Guard,
one Type B-1 extinguisher is required.
Boats longer than 16 feet and shorter than 26 feet: At least one
portable hand Type B-1 fire extinguisher.
All fire Extinguishers should be mounted in a readily accessible loca-

know where the fire Extinguishers are and how to operate them.
If your fire extinguisher has a charge indicator gauge, cold or hot
weather may affect the gauge reading. Consult the instruction man-
ual supplied with the fire extinguisher to determine the accuracy of
the gauge.
