Facts About Fireboats and Marine Rescue

Fireboats pump water directly from the surrounding lake or ocean, giving them an endless supply of water to extinguish waterfront fires. These specialized vessels assist burning ships, port structures, and coastal buildings that land-based fire engines cannot easily reach. Many emergency boats carry high-powered monitors capable of spraying thousands of gallons per minute.

True Colors of a Marine Fireboat

  • Hull and cabin: bright red and white marine paint
  • Storage shutters: metallic silver or light gray aluminum
  • Water cannon: painted red or brushed stainless steel
  • Undercarriage wheels: dark gray or black rubber
  • Water surface: deep blue, turquoise, or navy blue
