Fire part 2 The worst thing that can happen on a boat! #boatfire

Boat Fires Part 2: Galley Fires, Pan Fires & Gas vs Induction Cooking Galley fires are one of the most common and most dangerous fires on board — and many start with simple mistakes that are completely preventable. In Part 2 of this series, we focus on galley and cooking fires, including pan fires, gas systems, and whether induction cooking is a safer alternative for boats. In this video, you’ll learn: What pan fires are, how they start, and why they escalate so fast Why you should NEVER use water on a pan fire The correct response to a galley fire using lids, fire blankets, and extinguishers Why fire blankets are essential equipment on every boat Common galley fire risks most boat owners overlook The real risks of LPG / propane gas on boats Why gas leaks are especially dangerous in marine environments Gas safety essentials: lockers, solenoids, detectors, and hose inspections The pros and cons of induction cooking on boats Why induction reduces fire risk — but only if the electrical system is designed correctly Cooking fires don’t give second chances. Knowing how to react in the first few seconds can mean the difference between a minor incident and abandoning ship. ⚠️ Disclaimer This video is for educational purposes only.
