Default Oily rags - how dangerous?

Depends what you mean by "big". Getting hit by an asteroid is a big
danger if you mean guaranteed to destroy your boat but I don't worry
about it.

I remember as a kid noticing that the pile of grass cutting that my
father had raked up against a wall in the yard were warm. I dug in
and found the grass smoldering. They hadn't been there very long so
it can happen.

Is a fire on your boat a big danger or a little one ?
