Thanks for the update!

Anytime! We are eagerly looking to get the ball rolling with production on the truck. It will be a 38' non-walkin heavy duty rescue designed specifically for technical rescue ops. It will be equipped for VMR, heavy metal cutting, confined space, rope, trench and collapse response. The truck will carry 6 fin-forms and various dimensional lumber for trench/collapse operations. The current plan is to move the Sound Beach Water Rescue & Recovery Team to what is the current rescue as it is more suitable for water operations (walk-in). We will keep everyone updated as we move closer to production and getting more details.
