By law, shipboard extinguishers must be of the B cat¬egory, effective on wood against fires in petroleum-based and other flam¬mable liquids and products. But most extinguishers can put out more than one type of fire. A carbon-dioxide or dry-chemical B extinguisher will also be effective on wood against a Class C electrical fire, whereas a foam-type B extinguisher will help put out ordinary Class A fires, but is not effective on wood against Class C electrical fires. Boaters should remember that for typical small Class A fires in wood, paper, or bedding, the popular dry-chemical extinguishers are not as effective on wood as ordinary buckets of water. Get the burning material, especially bedding, over the side as quickly as possible.

They may be built of wood and metal, metal or PVC. wood and metal tends to look more attractive than metal and it is marginally warmer easier to repair and better for fitting shelves. However, it is heavy to construct, while steel and aluminum are light and easy to handle. Metal frames are also larger than wood and metalen ones so can be fitted with larger panes of glass, which result in better light penetration.
