Where should fire extinguishers be stored on a boat?

Fire extinguishers should be stored in a boat at the engine area and near the operator. A fire extinguisher should be put near the engine because the engine of the boat is a fire hazardous place and this is the area where a fire could start. The fire extinguisher should be installed properly using a mounting bracket to hold the extinguisher in place. There are different types of extinguishers that should be installed in the boat, these are type A, B, and C extinguishers. Type A extinguishers can turn off the fire caused by combustible solids like wood and paper. Type B extinguishers can turn off fire caused by gasolines, oil, and greases. While Type C extinguishers can turn off fire caused by an electrical problem.
