When operating on federally controlled waters a vessel must carry a Type B fire extinguisher on board if conditions exist?
USCG regulations do not require any B-II extinguishers on pleasure vessels up to 65 feet or 1,000 bhp, unless it is a passenger-carrying motor vessel.
However, where two or more B-I extinguishers are required, a B-II may be substituted for two B-Is, although it is a very bad idea to increase the risk that one extinguisher may malfunction and you would not have any backup.
Canadian regulations are somewhat different and require at least one B-II for any motor vessel over 8 meters or any other vessel that large, if there is a gas or liquid-fueled heating or cooking system aboard.
