This week I had the unique opportunity to go out on sea trials on the FNDY Fireboat 343! This on-board video shoes the first full speed runs (it FLIES!!) and the first firing of the fire registers (water cannons). Even using only one pump and two registers, it was enough to push us backwards over 2 knots into a strong tail wind.

Sorry for the quality - they didn't want me shooting high-def until the boat receives its final coat of paint. I think it looked great as is, but this is an important boat and they want it to look perfect. I will do my best to get on-board with the HD camera next time!
