It was a great fireboat. But it could not squirt water but they thought it still had water and when it got there it needed it so bad and when they ran out of food other people got it and brought it to the ships. It's name was the John J. Harvey they thought it was useless but it wasn't. A group of people eating at a restaurant brought it. The Harvey was launched in 1928. And 2 planes crashed into the Twin towers and they called the John J. Harvey and he pumped water not for 1 day but for many days and it had an American Flag sticking out the back of it. They took it to a ship repair yard after they bought it. It was a great book and I loved it.
