Fire System

[slillestrand]

Does anyone have a picture of the builit in Fire Extinguisher system. I would like to see what it looks like in the Engine Compartment.

Thanks

I have used Safecraft fire systems in my race cars and boats before. The nozzles are small so a picture doesn't even really show the installation. In a boat, we've mounted the actual bottle under the helm and plumbed the 2 or 3 nozzles using stainless line under the floor with the activation cable/ring under the throttle by the seat. Keep in mind that a closed compartment means the system is more efficient, so you don't necessarily have to put the nozzles directly spraying onto the engine like we'd need to do on a car.

I have an 08 210TE and we have the fire system. I don't have any pictures of the fire system specifically but looking at the motor picture here, the fire bottle is located in the upper far left corner under the exhaust manifold. It's so hard to see the when we first got the boat i thought they had forgot to put it in. It looks just like a normal fire bottle with a sprinkler type spray head on it.

I was able to get some pics of the fire bottle for you.

Fire in a boat

I always a fire extinguisher in a boat was called a life jacket and good insurance. Also open the engine cover and run the blower for 5 minutes before starting.

Thanks for the posts folks

I actually called correct craft to look into having this added to my new 2008 Ski 206 as I think this would be a great system to have in the boat.
