Can anyone advise on the best place to install a fire port on the Catalina 310? For example, one like this Fire Port | West Marine
On the 310, the front of the cover is also the companionway steps. Putting a port in the steps might make it hard to align a fire extinguisher vertically.I can't speak directly to a Catalina 310, but mine is installed on the front cover of the engine bay.
I don't have a photo. The cover is a large fiberglass box with steps molded into its forward side.Do you have a photo you can share? On my boat, the steps have to be removed in order to remove the front cover of the engine bay, so I don't have the same limitation.
