Description
The Sandwich Fire Department on Cape Cod has a thirty-eight foot
Fire Rescue Boat docked in the Sandwich Marina on the Cape Cod Canal.
The custom-made catamaran, with twin diesel jet-propulsion engines, was built by Moose Boats in California. It is equipped with deck guns capable of pumping 2,500 gallons of seawater per minute and spraying at distance of as much as 200 feet. In addition it has an infrared camera capable of detecting someone in the water up to a half-mile away. It also is equipped with two global positioning systems and side-scanning sonar that can detect obstructions or something in the water for 150 feet in both directions.
