California gets powerful pair of fireboats; security keeps patrol sector strong

摘要

Two impressive West Coast arrivals paced the fireboat sector in 2016, with the delivery of Protector to the Port of Long Beach and Fireboat 3 to the San Francisco Fire Department. SAFE Boats International, Willard Marine and Metal Shark continued a steady pace of deliveries in the patrol boat sector, while Gladding-Hearn Shipbuilding's dominance in the pilot boat arena continued with a host of new vessels for maritime operators across the country.
