I came across this awesome video for making a cheap, home made high water alarm. If the sensor wires are placed down in the bilge, and the smoke alarm itself it installed in the upper engine compartment, it could pull double duty as a high water alarm and smoke alarm.
I haven't seen smoke detectors in engine spaces before on the boat's I've been around. Surveyors haven't dinged me for not having them. Any contraindication to putting one in the compartment or is it a good idea?
