🚒 New Side-by-Side Added to the Fleet 🚒
We’re excited to introduce our new Can-Am 6x6 side-by-side with an EMS-D slip-in tank. This unit improves our access to beaches, remote trails, and logging areas, while enhancing rescue capabilities and patient transport for emergencies in hard-to-reach locations.

Thanks to everyone who made this happen! With this new apparatus, we’ll be removing our old beach rescue Humvee from service.
