FIGHT AGAINST FIRE
The extinguishers must be within easy access and kept away from a possible
fire source.
Combustible products shall not be stored in the engine compartment.
If you store non combustible products in the engine compartment, they shall be fastened so
that they cannot fall on the machine and block the way.
Exits other than the doors and hatches of the main companionway, equipped with
permanently fitted ladders, are identified with a symbol.
It is the owner's or the skipper's responsibility:
- Get the fire-fighting equipment checked at the frequency shown on the equipment.
- Replace portable fire extinguishers, if outdated or discharged, by extinguishing apparatus
of equal capacity.
- To fill or replace the fixed fire extinguishing systems if they are discharged or expired (if
the boat is equipped with a fixed fire extinguishing system).
- To tell the crew:
• where the extinguishers are and how they work,
• where the emergency exits are.
• The location of the discharge opening in the reservoir compartment.
- Make sure the extinguishers can be reached easily when people are on board.
- Make sure that the ventilation openings in the engine (and generator, if installed)
compartment are well cleared.
Keep the bilge clean. Regularly check that there is no fuel or gas vapour.
Exits other than the doors and hatches of the main companionway, equipped with
permanently fitted ladders, are identified with a symbol.
Do not store combustible materials in the engine compartment.
If non-combustible materials are stored in the engine compartment they must be secured so
there is no danger of them falling on machinery and they do not obstruct access to and from
the compartment.
In the case of replacement of components of the fire-fighting equipment, use only the
appropriate components of the same code designation or having the equivalent technical
capacity and fire resistance.
Do not install free-hanging curtains or other fabrics near or above the cooking appliances or
other equipment with a naked flame.
DANGER
Keep an extinguisher handy in case the fire should start again.
WARNING
Never:
- Obstruct the ways to the emergency exits.
- Obstruct the safety controls (Fuel oil valves, power switches).
- Block the extinguishers placed in shelves.
- Use gas lamps in the boat.
- Alter the boat systems (electricity, gas or fuel oil).
- Fill up a tank when an engine is running.
- Smoke while handling fuels.
