New USCG Fire Extinguisher Requirements

I was researching how to become a Vessel Safety Inspector and came across this new fire extinguisher regulation for recreational boats that goes into effect on 04/20/22. Here is a link. https://uscgboating.org/recreational-boaters/fire-extinguisher-faq.php

Here is a graphic outlining the new regulation.

No. I'm a United States Power Squadron member. Our squadron has 2 VSC inspectors and I'm planning on becoming the 3rd.
