PRE-ENGINEERED FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEMS FOR BOATS AND YACHTS
Great risk in case of fire
- Most boat/Yacht fires start in the engine compartment or electrical circuits
- Ignition of fuel vapours often explosive
- The majority of fires occur while cruising
Offshore fires present many risks:
- No escape other than jumping into the sea (possible drowning)
- No manoeuvrability without the engine (possible collision)
- No communication without electricity (Lost, no help) If you stay onboard
- Intoxication by poisonous fire fumes and smoke
High value damage:
- What starts as a tiny fire can quickly burn the entire yacht
- No help available from outside
- Repairs or replacement are expensive
- In a harbor, fire can spread to nearby yachts and boats
