Viola - Joe just gave me a reason to leave my CO2 bottle on the boat - 3
reasons. 1st, (what I got it for ) to blow a big ship horn, 2nd, to push my
favorite craft beer , ( I may have to get a large cooler ), and 3rd, put out
fires!

CO2 and halon are very nice ways to put out a fire without destroying the
interior. CO2 extinguishers tend to be fairly big and halon is expensive now.

Subject: Re: Stus-List Fire blankets have one. It is pretty big, about the size
of a backpack.I had 2 fires in the past 2 years. Fortunately I was on-board in
both, awake on one, woken up by the second.
I did not use the fire blanket though. Incidentally, first one was in the bilge
due to a seized bilge pump, and the second one was a faulty charger on a high
tech jumstarter.Both would have burned the boat down (1 ft flames licking the
liner) if I had not been there.I have the fire blanket in case if there is an
issue with the stove, such as an oil fireAhmet On Fri, Mar 18, 2016 at 7:58
