Interesting video from Kamloops, BC on Saturday. Thanks to Todd Holler for sending it to STATter911.com.
Two previous videos of watercraft being turned into fire boats.
Lorrie Jane Arnott said the she was relaxing on a powerboat in the Thompson River when she spotted smoke by East Shuswap Road.
She says a quick-thinking boater also saw the flames and “started whipping around with his boat.”
The long, fast-moving watercraft, known as a go-fast boat or cigarette boat, started circling near the shore, creating large rooster tails in its wake that landed on the flames.
Once firefighters arrived, the boater stopped circling and went on his way.
