Fireboats
Robert Allan Ltd. has designed customized, high-performance fireboats for major port cities around the world. These vessels also serve as Incident Command Centres or as primary response vessels for any local emergency actions requiring water-based control.
Our fireboats have a diverse array of configurations, propulsion types, and fire-fighting performance, each based on the development of a very specific “Needs Assessment” of the risks in the individual port.
Designated as the RAnger series, fireboats designed by Robert Allan Ltd. represent some of the most capable and diverse vessels of their type in the world today.
The vessel class designation is denoted first by propulsion type:
- J – waterjets
- P – conventional props
- Z – Z-drive
- V – Voith drives
and then by length; For example a RAnger V-4000 is a Voith propulsion, 40 metres length version.
