The FireStorm 40 is a no compromise pumper. The pumping arrangement enables the boat to pump water for fire suppression at maximum capacity while maintaining maneuverability.
This allows the boat to act as a hydrant with an endless supply of water for supporting land units while remaining on station under its own power. One primary patient care berth with specialized storage for fire, response and medical equipment is incorporated into the cabin.
There is a full cuddy with head and sink and two secondary patient care berths for emergency response. When fitted with two 1,750 GPM rated firefighting pumps the FireStorm 40 can produce flow meter results of
4,000 GPM at 150 PSI and 4,800 GPM at 60 PSI.
A remote operated monitor mounted on the roof provides the primary firefighting capability from a dedicated console within the cabin and secondary monitor(s) is mounted on the bow.
Two 2.5-inch discharges and a 5-inch Storz outlet are fitted on the aft deck. Twin diesel inboard engines matched to water-jet propulsion units can propel the boat to speeds of 38 knots and allow the boat to perform
emergency stops and change direction within two boat lengths.
The added beam and length produce an over wide ratio providing a massive aft work deck that has a heavy loading capacity and greater performance under loaded conditions.
