We love learning about the history of our boat, but also ensuring we’re prepping her for the future and upgrading as needed.

Flashback to 6 years ago during our 1st 5 year USCG drydock inspection. Rudders definitely needed an upgrade, you can see the massive difference in the condition between old and new. We also repurposed our old rudder posts which were in good enough condition to use, for bollards to secure the boat to the dock.

This season is our Fireboat’s 90th birthday, being built in 1936, and we’re excited to celebrate with you all onboard!
