Fire Department Boat Docked In National Harbor. In Fire And Rescue Boat Work, The Emphasis Is Usually On The Rescue Part. More Than 90% Of Calls Are To Get People Out Of Trouble. That Often Means Going Out In Water Too Rough For Most Small Craft, In Low Visibility And High Wind, Which Puts A Premium On Bcgp's Impact Rhibs And Boston Whalers Because Of Their Superior Lateral Stability, Sea Keeping Capabilities And Flotation. Even If They Take Water Over The Bow, They Drain And Keep Going - So A Rescue Boat Operation Doesn't End Up With The Rescuers In The Water.
