Maybe the town of Moultonborough should look at this boat for the FD.
I was told the other day that the FD is asking for $163,000.00 in the town budget this year for a new fire boat. I went and looked at that towns warrant article listed on their website and sure enough. $163,000.00 for a fire boat.
It of course does't explain what kind of boat or how it will be equiped but I can't help but wonder what kind of a utility type boat costs $163K.

The question is not really what type of utility boat cost 163K. The boat is only one part of the equation. The boat has to be outfitted, and that can get expensive. As a Moultonborough tax payer I would love to learn more about this. Considering the boats they have been using over the years, have been used boats that the town has converted over, I am all for the town to get an actual fire boat designed for the purpose.
