Shark building two new fireboats

JEANERETTE, La. - Louisiana-based boat builder Metal Shark is building two welded-aluminum 50-foot fireboats for Anne Arundel County (Md.) Fire Department

It was designed by its in-house engineering team and now under construction at the company’s Franklin, La., shipyard.

The 50 Defiant NXT monohull pilothouse fireboats are being acquired to provide a significant boost to the department’s maritime firefighting capability.

The new fireboats feature a wide range of next-generation enhancements.

With the acquisition of these new, state-of-the-art firefighting machines, Anne Arundel County Fire Department joins a rapidly growing list of Metal Shark fire-rescue clients across the country.
