On Avocet, we installed seven (!) First Alert SCO501CN-3ST (Series SCO500) ONELINK Wireless Battery Operated Combination Photoelectric Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm with Voice last year. These are similar to the ones Jim Healy described but they include the ability to talk to each other wirelessly. For instance, if the "basement" alarm sounds in the bosun's locker, then the adjacent alarms in the lazarette, salon and engine room will pick up the message and repeat it, and so on, until the entire daisy-chain of alarms is sounding. Cost was about $45 each; one per sleeping area, galley, engine room, saloon, bosun's locker (basement), and lazarette. We usually have a (self-inflicted) false alarm in the galley about once a month due to cooking. So far, the alarms are surviving well in the engine room and lazarette.

Wow, Richard, 7! That must be a real concert when all are shouting and screaming that the toast is done :). You need to add one more under the master bed where the thruster motor/windlass battery pack are.
