Really nice site, and they will be very impressive boats.  Is it known et which units they will replace?  Perhaps the current Marines 1 & 9??

They're slated to replace Marine 1 (big boat) and Marine 9.

would Marine-9 (firefighter) become the reserve boat like Marine-6 (Governor Alfred Smith) currently serves? I read Marine-1 will be sold and become a tug

The Firefighter is set to be given to some museum.
