The FireStorm 30
is a new generation of fireboat. It provides more speed, maneuverability & pumping capacity than any
other boat in its class. It is the highest pumping 30' fireboat in North America. It is fitted with
a Darley pump that produced flow meter results of 1800 GPM with a single 1250 GPM Outboard powered
N.F.P.A. pump.
High pump numbers are due to a unique MetalCraft Marine proprietary designed sea chest. This sea chest has an intake three times the cross sectional area of the main, can be inspected and cleaned while underway and provides a positive head to the pump.
The monitor location is central to good design and is close to the centre of buoyancy of the boat. This permits the helmsman to pivot the boat around the thrust load at low RPM.
Operators are amazed at the boat's control under full streaming at any angle. The boat's head never blows off its course. Simplicity is the key to the fire system, and is based on fire truck system design for ease of maintenance and reparability. The FS-30 packs a huge punch for its small size and can get into the smallest of marinas
