ORLANDO, FL (PRWEB) April 17, 2004--Alumitech, Inc. announces the development
of its new search and rescue (SAR) airboat now available to fire-rescue and law
enforcement agencies. Alumitech’s SAR airboat is uniquely designed to provide
service and performance in a variety of adverse operating
conditions.
The standard Alumitech SAR airboat
is an 18 L x 8 W foot aluminum hull airboat specifically designed for search and
rescue operations. Built from Alumitech’s standard AGI A-model, the SAR airboat
has been beefed up for winter and prolong ice operation with half-inch polymer
covering the hull bottom and sides and increased hull framing.
The SAR airboat is powered by a GM 496 cu. in.,
8.1 liter, 525 hp, fuel injection engine, capable of running on 87 octane
unleaded fuel, a 2.3:1 ratio long-belt gear reduction drive unit and a 4-blade
Sensenich composite propeller.
Alumitech’s
unique SAR airboat hull design affords a 5-person crew seating capacity, while
providing maximum equipment storage capability.
The enclosed hull/walk
around deck provides a stable work platform for divers, as well as, a secure
patient treatment area. The vessel’s total carrying capacity is 8-10 adults or a
3,200 total pound load capacity.
Also, included in the hull’s design are
watertight storage compartments adequate for the storage of thermal imaging
cameras, AED/Defibrillators and other electronic equipment.
The SAR
airboat is equipped with a full illumination package that features dual 600,000
candlepower remote control search lights, running lights, scene floodlights and
red strobe emergency warning lights, all powered off the vessel’s 130 amp
alternator. In addition, the SAR airboat is equipped with a 1,000 watt
generator, for prolonged night rescue operations.
