Lineage:
This 20' rescue boat for Falmouth (MA) Fire Department well on its way to completion at Lyman Morse Fabrication, a terrific builder in Thomaston, Maine. It is roughly derived from our design #559, and features rescue egress through both a transom door and a hull side door. The layout, of course, was developed in close collaboration with the fire department.
