The Standard defines five classes of fire-fighting vessels and specifies:
- Design considerations

- Owner responsibilities
- Fire protection equipment for the vessel
- Fire-fighting and emergency equipment for the vessel
- Subdivision and stability criteria

- Navigation systems and equipment
- Protective coatings and corrosion protection
- Tests and trials
- Vessel maintenance
Changes in the 2018 edition of NFPA 1925 are in keeping with its scope.
The 2018 edition removes specific basic medical and first-aid supplies listed in Paragraph 10.6, leaving it to the AHJ to determine what the vessel is required to carry based on its intended use and mission. NFPA 1925 is not a detailed manufacturing purchase specification, but rather a reference for the minimum requirements that should be included within a purchase specification.
