Before fueling your boat, ensure you have a fire extinguisher within reach, as well as any necessary personal protective equipment, such as gloves and safety goggles. Additionally, keep a spill kit nearby to address any potential fuel spills quickly. It's also wise to have a communication device ready in case of emergencies.
