What item is required at each access to spaces with a fuel-burning appliance on boats 12m to under 24m?

  1. A 10BC portable fire extinguisher

  2. A 5BC portable fire extinguisher

  3. A fire blanket

  4. A water hose

The correct answer is: A 10BC portable fire extinguisher

Fire extinguishers with a 10BC rating are the most appropriate option because a higher BC rating indicates that it can handle larger fires and different types of fires, including electrical fires. A 5BC fire extinguisher may not be sufficient in case of an emergency, and a fire blanket may not be able to combat certain types of fires. A water hose is also not an appropriate option as it may not be effective for extinguishing fuel-based fires. Therefore, an extinguisher with a 10BC rating is the most suitable and required item at each access to spaces with a fuel-burning appliance on boats 12m to under 24m.
