Thanks to Pasco FD for showing me their new boat.

The new fireboat is in this complex along the Columbia River.

Out at the Tri-Cities Airport in Pasco is a structural and ARFF station.

Yakima, WA Fire Station

Seattle Fire Station 20

The salt-water side of Seattle is protected by these two fireboats.
The large "Leschi" and fast boat "Fireboat 2" are normally docked
at Station 5 downtown by the ferry terminals on Alaskan Way. That
station and section of the waterfront are under renovation so these two
vessels are temporarily docked at the cruise ship piers at Smith Bay.

The "Leschi" is Seattle's largest fireboat.
Built in 2007, the 108' vessel can pump over 22,000 gpm.

The "Chief Seattle" is a 96' long large fireboat built in 1983.
It was completely refurbished in 2013. The pumps are capable
of about 10,000 gpm. It is docked with Fireboat 1 at Fisherman's Terminal.

Seattle Fire Station 20

The "Leschi" is Seattle's largest fireboat.
Built in 2007, the 108' vessel can pump over 22,000 gpm.

Seattle's Fireboat 1 is a 50' "fast boat" built by MetalCraft in 2006.
It can pump 6000 gpm. A similar vessel was built for Seattle's Fireboat 2
in 2014 and is assigned to the other fireboat station.

Just to change things up a bit, we stopped at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport and
got a tour of their station and apparatus.
