Description:
Savannah GA Fire Department Marine 1
"Courageous"
Savannah GA, USA - October 17th 2020
2015 MetalCraft Marine Fire Storm 50
50 Feet 5" Long, 16" Feet Wide
Can pump up to 7300gpm and carries 100 gallons of foam.
Can also be used for disaster relief, rescue, diving and supplying land companies with water.
Bought with a Homeland Security Grant and has the capability of an cabin overpressure system for defense against hazardous gases and fumes.
While there are reports it was "retired" in 2018, I believe that is in error as it is clearly in operation and with a Homeland Security Grant the city would have had to pay back the cost if taken out of service too early. Probably was scaled from permanent staffing to standby staffing from land companies. It has responded to emergencies (including a large waterfront fire) in 2020.
