Val, that is one of my concerns - not having an extinguisher 'on deck', as an engine fire could prevent entry into the cabin. The anchor locker is shallow (above the V-berth) and can be wet, so that is not an option. Now, Mechele says just to put the stern locker back, she does not like the open stern! If I desired to cut a rather large hole in the cockpit somewhere, say, behind a line bag, I could install a locker for the extinguisher, but I rather would not.
