"Standard Fire Extinguisher Compartment"

[cmk245]

Question , This is stated as "Standard Equipment" on the V20 Brochures ?

Where is it , or should it be located ?

I have a small Dry Chem Ext. mounted on the cabin interior wall.
Sure don't have a recessed compartment for a Fire Ext.

I think this is what the brochure refers to. They were usually located on the side of the inner hull by the pedestal chairs

Boy that's a Pricey item... ($157.00 w/o Extinguisher)
Made out of Starboard !!

Have you seen any V20's with that (or similar) installed by factory.

I'll have to check the Gallery photos to see I spot any.

Thanks for the Reply.

I don't know if other years had them but my 87' V20 has a factory mounted one on the port side gunnel just over the rod holders midway between the chairs and the stern. I'd send a pic but my boat is covered for the winter.

Thanks "D".
When you get it uncovered, and you remember,
Please send a Pic, would appreciate it.

Just have never seen this "Factory Extinguisher Compartment" in any V20 photos. (and I have a Bunch !!) Curious to see what you have.

I had an 87 and it was located on the starboard side, right behind the operators seat. If I can upload a pic, I can give you and idea how it looked.



look where I had the blue line. Not a great pic, but it gives you a roundabout idea.

That s it Cam, i ve seen them ther and on the port side and horizontally above the rod boxes like D has. I have also seen them in the rear corners on the gunnells.

The ones wellcraft used were the cheaper ones made out of the same stuff the bait boxes were made of

Thanks Guys, Gives me some idea what they looked like.
But were NOT mounted in any ONE, Standard Place,,,,

Hey Cam, like the Rod Holders attached to Bimini Frame.
Look like Stainless.
Were they custom made, or available from a Vendor ?

my 84 cuddy did not have those. Exstinguisher was mounted on the "armrest" bumpout ( near the pictured one) with the strap that comes with a Kidd exstinguisher.

Your 79 will have a different hull liner.
