B/C extinguisher. Two or more. As large as practical .Mounted at egress points and one in the primary sleeping area.

I believe OP is looking to have existing stuff serviced, not recommendations for purchase. In the immortal words of Tig Notaro, “eminently google-able”.

Google always directs you to whomever provides the most ad revenue. The local fire station will be happy to tell you who they use and occasionally they just throw your extinguisher in with their latest batch to be recertified. When you are told to pick it up it costs a smile and a handshake.

Yes correct - sorry poorly worded sentence above

I am looking for an inspection service in the Norfolk/Hampton area - for the ship mounted fire extinguisher systems - to meet insurance requirements.

I’ve googled around but figured if someone knew of a rigger and fire inspector recommendation that would be coveted vs going alone.

Thanks again.

For standing rigging, I have had great work done by Gaston at Tidewater Marine Services. https://tidewatermarineservices.com
