Something major had to happen for the fly to collapse like that. It held for the member to climb it, then suddenly dropped. Apparently evenly. Not 1 side failed then seconds later the other side. The video I saw, the bottom of the ladder, after the " collapse" for lack of a better tem, was...

Not in the configuration she was in. The bridge clearance is 127 i believe and the ships air draft is roughly 160. From the little info available, she was backing out of the pier after a refueling stop in her way to Greenland or Iceland. I forget which. She suffered a mechanical failure just...

I haven't seen them mentioned but they would secure the area for FD and whoever else do their work and investigate. They also control a group called the VTS or vessels tracking service which would advise ships and traffic to avoid the area. Any commercial ship moving around has to call in and...

I dont want to think about what the crew in the rigging was thinking realizing that the bridge was getting closer and at there level. I was wondering the same thing if there was some kind of mechanical failure. One of the people I follow on yt, is a tug Capt in NY Harbor, that moves bunker...

According to Firewire, a tugboat is removing people from the water.

For the 2nd time this year that I know of of, the 18 mile stretch of Overseas Highway and Card Island Sound Road has been closed in both directions due to a brush fire. Over 350 acres were burning as of 2300 on The 8th. Fire is considered 25% contained. Drivers are being warned of intermittent...

At somepoint on May 6th a man was found lying on the ground appearing to have a seizure. The DS who arrived first, asked the man if he was OK, and the man got up and pointed a syringe at the Deputy. The Deputy ordered the man to drop the syringe which he eventually did, but charged the Deputy...

Going back to a Tiller would be a better description.

I did some quick math. A 6000lpm engine, is roughly 1500 gpm. The 1 thing that did catch my eye, other then donated units, is the age. The youngest unit i saw was roughly 19. I volunteered in Polk County Fl on a similar engine to the Freightliners M2 106. It was a lot of things, comfortable...

I'm not sure which fire it was, but Nassau was soliciting firefighting help from the cruise ships. BTW I did find this. Hopetown has a boat at least.

From talking to people that deal with building in the Bahamas, apparently its not the easiest thing in the world. Contracts are written in pencil and invisible ink and the bureaucracy is worse than some cities here. Every body has their hand in anything. I read an article where the tourism head...

I would agree. I was in Nassau one time on a cruise and 1 of their engines went by while we were looking around. Had 2 people on it. Didn't look like they had too much on the rig from what I remember. Not knocking them, just an observation. I don't think they have a governing body for the fire...

A Fire broke out about 1900 several blocks from the cruise port last night. The fire spread thru several residential blogs. Witness reported several booms as the fire jumped from 1 bldg to the next. The Nassau FD, was short handed as several units had been sent to Freeport to battle the brush...

Broad Channel is finally moving foward with there new firehouse. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1AJ24spsVE/

There is a common spec for each type of unit manufacturers offer. There's actually a government bid page where the major makers have a basic unit for a given price. And all of the makers, had very similar units.and very similar prices. And you couldn't change much on the spec. For example...

Nope. The 13 has a fire out off 133 and 214 street at the same time. Box 5825 i think
