2012 Supra Burns at Norris

^^^ - Correct, glad it had the CO2 sensors

^^^ Good advice right there, who would ever want it after a partial fire, boat, house or car!

One thing for sure, she made a mistake by opening the engine hatch, then again, if insured, burn baby burn, open her up and abandon ship!

Funny story, rented a house boat once, forgot to run the generator one day and the batteries ran down, fridge is fired by propane, the smoke/CO2 detectors went off at 2am. Off course this woke everyone up. After frantically trying to figure out what the heck was on fire, finally discovered it was the fridge and CO2 warning. Fired up the generator, turned on the A/C fan and all was good.

Afterwords my sister in law stated. "Boy That was scary" I responded, nahhh, if she was really on fire, we would have just jumped on my boat and had a heck of a show.

The problem is that CO2 displaces oxygen, you may have gone to sleep and never woken up.

Not a nice sight to see, but as always, if it's insured and everybody's safe, call the fire department 5 mins before it's burned to the ground...

COme on guys , Someones life was at risk and suffered a huge loss. Why make fun of them? Sometimes I think ya,ll are too self centered to show any feelings toward others. grow up and show a little compassion or keep QUIET!

Seriously? Relax a little... it might help with your high blood pressure.

Great info thanks.

Both manual and auto

[clrussell]

This brings up a good question...... On the new MC's is te fire suppression system automatic or manual?

I believe manual, I saw the pull cable on the new prostar and x star at the boarding school last week. Definitely had a pin and handle to pull

Agree...Sorry if I came off a bit harsh...scary to think what can happen when fuel spark and fiberglass are combined under our seat we sit in having fun.

Got that right!

That is why we can have fun with this - no loss of life... stuff can be replaced...

[scott023]

Yes, most important info is that no one was hurt. Everything beyond that is workable.

[Footin]

Glad no one got hurt, boats can be replaced.
