FIGHT AGAINST FIRE

The extinguishers must be within easy access and kept away from a possible fire source.
Keep an extinguisher handy in case the fire should start again.
It is the owner's or the skipper's responsibility:
- To equip the boat with extinguishers.
- To have the extinguishers checked in pursuance of the instructions given.
- To replace the extinguishers by others with an equal or a greater capacity if the extinguishers have
expired or are empty.
- To tell the crew:
• where the extinguishers are and how they work,
• where the emergency exits are.
- Make sure the extinguishers can be reached easily when people are on board.
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 panels of the main access which is equipped with permanently fitted
ladders must be identified with a symbol.
- 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).
