What safety gear would you have near a propane
stove in the galley?


1 pt


1. Master shut off valve for propane.
2. Fire hood.
3. Cover for stove.
4. CO detector.
5. Vent fan.
6. Fire extinguisher located near exit.
7. Heavy duty oven mitts or M-60 barrel changing mitts.
8. Halon or purple K in a can/small bucket/bottle.
9. Propane leak detector.


One thing I noticed on boats in the UK. A flame retardant
blanket--to one side of a stove. Good for putting out a
grease fire.
