The owner/skipper is responsible for providing portable fire
extinguishers. Your sailing yacht should be equipped with appropriate
portable fire extinguishers in compliance with the recommendation
below at the places marked with the sign you see to your left. Please
pay attention to regional regulations regarding the number of and
provision with portable fire extinguishers. Don’t start running the
yacht before conforming requirements!
They should be located at the following places:

fire extinguisher is only to be used to fight fire in the galley. In all other living spaces the
dry powder fire extinguishers are to be used.
Danger! Please take note that after triggering the dry powder fire
extinguisher the dry powder spreads out in the room. It is absolutely
necessary to air the room before entering it again.
Supplement your equipment with a fire blanket, which is highly effective in the area of the cooker,
especially with hot grease.
Note: Comply with the inspection periods of the fire extinguishers
and make sure that they are ready to work.
Fire extinguishers past the expiration date or which have already been used must be replaced by
fire extinguishers with the same fire classification and the same or a higher capacity. If parts of the
fire-extinguishing system are replaced, only use appropriate components that have the same sign
or are equal in terms of their technical and fire-retarding properties
Instruct your crew and your guests as to the arrangement and handling of the alarm and fire
extinguishing equipment on the yacht. You should additionally include alternative possibilities to
extinguish fires such as water buckets, fire blankets etc.
The skipper must inform the crew of

the arrangement of fire extinguishers and the operation of fire extinguishing gear,

the arrangement of the discharge openings in the engine rooms

and the arrangement of escape hatches.
When the boat is manned care must be taken to ensure that the fire extinguishers are easily
accessible.
Attention: Never

obstruct exits and hatches;

apply blocks to hatches when persons are on board;
