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 fire

Any listers have a fire blanket onboard?

Ever had to use one or see one used?

Opinions?
