    Did you not know you can buy a license for various periods starting from as little as a week?

    If you stated your boat was kept in a marina when you took out your insurance and that is changing you should notify your insurers.

    I doubt that data is available. But certainly some extinguishers are better than none. In some respects I am thinking multiple small extinguishers could be a better option . Letting rip with a large powder extinguisher for example could be detrimental in itself to the user . I also think the spray mist type is worth considering and I may well get one of those . Lets not forget fire blankets which could aid escape , and also having one on board is a BSS requirement. As said it is better to get out than trying to fight a fire .

    No chance with that one .

    The BSS is too complex and I agree of little value. But marginally better than no test at all. Without the test some boats would have no fire extinguishers for example.

    That would be the inspector who did not inspect anything? Looking at the video I posted could it be a big extinguisher of the powder or CO2 type could snuff out the user . The water spray mist seems the best type? But expensive compared to dry powder. One of the advantages being the clean up could be easier https://www.safelincs.co.uk/1-litre-water-mist-fire-extinguisher-ultrafire/?q=mist

    If that's the case why are the 1kg extinguishers for sale at all? 6 seconds for the 1kg, 9 seconds for the 2kg, 14 seconds for the 4kg Inside a boat enough to snuff you out . Not really the best option but certainly the lowest cost.

    I guess people who own narrowboats may be accustomed to breathing exhaust fumes quite often . So a change to HVO should be a healthy move. I thought diesel and HVO were the same as far as duty is concerned?
