Complete Marine Fire Extinguisher Systems for All Types of Boats & Vessels

Installing a marine fire extinguisher system involves unique challenges that differ significantly from land-based fire protection. Onboard a vessel, factors like limited space, constant exposure to moisture and salt, movement from waves, and the presence of various flammable substances increase the risk and complexity of fire hazards. Additionally, the absence of immediate emergency services while on the water makes onboard fire suppression not just a safety feature—but a critical necessity.

At Fire Extinguisher Sales & Service, we specialize in developing marine fire systems that are specifically engineered to meet these demands. Our systems are built to resist corrosion, withstand harsh maritime environments, and provide fast, effective protection against Class A (combustibles), Class B (flammable liquids), and Class C (electrical) fires.

Each system is designed with usability in mind—ensuring rapid deployment and easy operation even in confined or high-stress environments. Whether you need automatic fire suppression for engine rooms or portable boat fire extinguishers for cabin or deck areas, our solutions are built with your vessel's unique layout and risks in mind.

Serving Fraser, MI and the greater Metro Detroit area, we offer marine fire protection systems suitable for all types of watercraft—from small boats to commercial fleets.

Marine Fire Systems FAQs

What Is A Requirement For Fire Extinguishers On A Boat

The U.S. Coast Guard requires boats to carry marine-rated fire extinguishers if they have:

Inboard engines
Closed compartments where fuel or flammable materials are stored
Enclosed living spaces
Permanently installed fuel tanks

The extinguisher must be Type B (for flammable liquids) and approved by the USCG. The number required depends on the boat's size and design (see below).

Where Should A Fire Extinguisher Be Stored On A Boat

Marine fire extinguishers should be easily accessible in high-risk areas, such as:

Near the engine compartment
In the galley (kitchen area)
Close to fuel storage compartments
Inside the cockpit or helm station

Mount extinguishers securely and ensure all passengers know their location and how to use them.

How Many Fire Extinguishers Are Required On A Boat

The number of fire extinguishers required on a boat depends on its length and whether it has a fixed fire suppression system.

Boats under 26 feet need at least one B-I extinguisher.
Boats 26 to 40 feet require two B-I or one B-II.
Boats 40 to 65 feet need three B-I or a mix of B-I and B-II.

If a fixed system is installed, you can carry one less B-I. Always check Coast Guard regulations for the latest requirements.

What Type Of Fire Extinguisher For A Boat?

Boats need marine-rated Class B fire extinguishers to combat flammable liquid fires. However, multi-class ABC extinguishers are ideal because they also cover:

Class A (wood, paper)
Class C (electrical fires)

For enclosed engine compartments, consider installing an automatic clean-agent fire suppression system (like CO or FM-200) for added protection.

What Size Fire Extinguisher Do I Need For A Boat?

Fire extinguisher sizes are categorized as:

B-I (small -- minimum for boats under 26 ft)
B-II (larger -- for boats over 40 ft or with multiple compartments)

The size needed depends on the vessel's length, the number of fire zones, and whether you have an installed suppression system. Portable extinguishers should always be USCG-approved and within their service date.
