Rare Copper10-8 Posted February 17, 2018 #112 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Why are we getting the fire boat display It's not a fire boat, it's a tug, and she's standing by in turning basin for the last two departures. Appears to be testing her nozzles or, perhaps someone is retiring ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boytjie Posted February 17, 2018 Author #113 Share Posted February 17, 2018 It's not a fire boat, it's a tug, and she's standing by in turning basin for the last two departures I got that one right! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Copper10-8 Posted February 17, 2018 #124 Share Posted February 17, 2018 (edited) Question for you, Copper - is she squirting sea water? Yes Ma'am, the advantage of a fire boat, or in this case, tug, an endless water supply :D (in most ports around the world, certain tug boats take on a secondary role as fire boat however, unlike dedicated fire boats operated by fire departments, the tug's crew are not firemen) Edited February 17, 2018 by Copper10-8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
