Re: FIRE EXTINGUISHER USCG CERTIFIDE SM2K #430

I was just looking into those, prob tough to source in Hawaii.  Do you recall the model number or any specifics on the installation.  I like the fact it will not destroy the engine room even if the fire does not. 

 

Thanks for your reply

We installed the fireboy system on Nebo sm251. Did it when we redid the engine room. It shuts down the fans and engine when activated.

Amelians,
  I have been reading through all the posts trying to sort out the engine room fire extinguishers.  The long skinny one on the stb side of the companion way that is manually actuated appears to be un- serviceable as the company trying to re cert it is unable to take the valve off to do hydro and refill.  I am not sure if they will be able to service the automatic one located in the port laz.  Has anyone been able to come up with a solution in the U.S. short of replacing the entire set up?  and if you did have to replace the set up, what did you come up with?

Appreciate any helpful advice,
