Around here you can pick one up at Home depot for $10.00 when on sale. We keep one in the boat and also one in the kitchen at home.
Even if they are only effective on smaller stove top fires, I'd keep one handy and try it on small fires before going for the extinguisher. A crew member can standby with the extinguisher. If the fire blanket doesn't work you can always put the fire out by blowing off an ABC Dry Chem extinguisher (and likely making the interior of the boat unlivable). There are a number of good (and many bad) Fire Blanket videos online, the better ones seem to be from the UK or Australia. I've never needed to use on in anger. Ken H.
