Boat Support 11 was donated in early 2013 to the Potomac Valley Fire Company by the Park Service. Company 11 will be using Boat Support 11 as a Support piece for all off road related emergencies where access maybe limited such as, Brush fire’s, Emergencies on the Appalachian Trial, the C&O Canal or Towpath and more). Boat Support 11 will also be responsible for towing Boat 11 as the first out unit on all Water related emergencies on the Potomac River due to the limited space along the C&O Canal & Towpath, Boat Support 11’s size and mobility will greatly improve company 11’s ability to handle emergencies located in hard to reach locations.
