2005 Lowe Roughneck

2005 Roughneck Rescue Boat, is used for water rescue incidents on the Ohio river. Milton Fire District covers about 24 miles of the river. due to the increase in traffic along the river, we started a water rescue service in 1997, after the flood of 1997. This boat was purchased in 2005 and put into service in October 2005, replacing the older 1971 aristocraft boat the department owned. 8591 is located at Milton Station #1.
