Tahoe Douglas Fire Protection District will dedicate and launch its fire boat on Nov. 13 at 3pm at the Edgewood Tahoe clubhouse.

After opening remarks, firefighters will demonstrate the boat’s capabilities on Lake Tahoe.

This custom builtboat is similar to those found in large bay areas with a large pump that can provide fire flow. It was designed to enhance TDFPD’s capabilities to respond to a wide range of emergencies, including firefighting and on-the-water rescue operations.
