Description
The FireStorm 50 is a high-speed, high pump-capacity aluminum fireboat; one serves the Kuwait Fire Services Directorate. MetalCraft describes the FireStorm line as the result of years of research into high-volume pumping systems and their effect on small-boat stability, controllability, dynamic loading and righting moments.
