It's time for Boating Safety Tip #2! ⚓
Let's talk about fire extinguishers! 🧯🔥 Your fire extinguisher could be one of the most important pieces of safety equipment on your boat – but only if it's in good working condition.
Before your next trip on Lake Lanier, take a minute to check:
✅ The pressure gauge is in the green.
✅ The safety pin is secure.
✅ The nozzle is clear and free of obstructions.
✅ There are no signs of rust, corrosion, or damage.
✅ If it's a disposable fire extinguisher, make sure it's no more than 12 years old from the date of manufacture. For serviceable extinguishers, these may need to be replaced as well. Click the link below for more info.
A quick safety check today could make all the difference tomorrow. Visit boatus.org/fire-extinguishers/ to make sure your extinguisher is ready for any emergency. 🆘 ... See MoreSee Less
