GUEST PHOTOS
Jan 30, 2006
These photos were submitted by Peter Friess
in Hamburg, Germany.
He sent these two photos of an "American" style
fireboat model he is building. Interestingly, he has named
his craft the "John S. Damrell" with a home port of Boston.
If you do some research, you will find that Damrell was
the Boston Fire Chief at the time of the Great fire of 1872
and had a distinguished career and public service to the city.

These two former Hamburg fireboats have been restored and are on display as part
of
a floating museum. (Friess photo)
