  • If you own a boat that is model year 2018 or newer, you may need to replace your fire extinguishers:

    In addition to meeting the carriage requirements for the correct number of extinguishers for the size of your boat, they must be labeled as 5-B, 10-B or 20-B; extinguishers labeled with B-I or B-II only are no longer acceptable.
    Extinguishers must not be more than 12 years old according to the date of manufacture stamped on the bottle
    A serviceable fire extinguisher must meet the following:
    -          If the extinguisher has a pressure gauge reading or indicator it must be in the operable range or position

    -          The lock pin is firmly in place

    -          The discharge nozzle is clean and free of obstruction

    -          The extinguisher does not show visible signs of significant corrosion or damage.

    If you own a boat that is 2017 model year or older (between 1953-2017):
    You may keep your extinguishers labeled B-I and B-II as long as they are still serviceable, but if there is a date stamped on the bottle, it must not be more than 12 years old.

  • Mooring Lines recommendations at AP

    under 30 feet use 1/2" line
    30 feet to 40 feet use 5/8" line
    40 feet to 70 feet use 3/4" line
    70 feet to 90 feet use 7/8" line
    90 feet to 110 feet use 1" line


    As a general rule, the length of bow and stern lines should equal two-thirds of your boat's overall length. Spring lines should be slightly longer, approximately the same length as your boat.  Unless your boat is unusually heavy or will be subjected to severe conditions, a bow line, stern line, and two spring lines are recommended. If your permanent slip has outboard pilings as well, you will need an additional bow and stern line.
