[QUOTE="atuck593, post: 194159, member: 4904"] In PA I just looked on their web site for boating regulations. You only need an extinguisher if you have one of the following carry passengers for hire have the fuel tank covered by a hatch or under a closed seat have compartments where flamabe material may be stored operate a boat that has a gap between the hull and floor but this is only if the boat came that way from the company (If you built the floor and put it in yourself then you are ok. ) I would read the rules on your states fish and boat website or in their safety booklet for yourself before making any modifications though. It is common sense though to carry an extinguisher on board because there is no where to run except overboard when you are out on the water. [/QUOTE]
