Glad to see ya back on the site, Chief.

Will this be stationed at a marina somewhere, or will it be towed when needed?

Usually, when Marine 21 was requested MA-28 towed the boat from the firehouse. I assume Engine 224 will be doing the same with the new vessel.

Yes, Marine 21 stays on the Trailer at Fire Headquarters and is towed by Engine 224. This allows for year-round response. We can launch at either the VA property (depending on tide) or George's Island, which boarders the VA property.
