Sharp looking pump. Back to basics, huh? What extra toys does a Yonkers engine carry?

And can you give a run down on the hose loads?

Wicked jealous of that simple set up.

Rob. This spec is definitely back to basics for us. We only deviated from it last time (in past 30 yrs) which produced 2 pumpers that did not work out well.


The hose load set up is as follows:

*2 beds of 15-Lengths of 3-1/2" supply line (50')

*1 bed of 10-Lengths of 2-1/2" attack lines. (5L preconnect atop 5L bedded)

*1 bed 5-Lengths Preconnect 1-3/4" Our main attack line.

(The roll up doors were changed back to standard doors to get the fenderwell as low as possible)


3 Lengths 1-3/4" preconnect over Officer side tires (under the ground ladder)

4 "Donuts" 1-3/4" Hi-Rise roll ups on driver side.

2 length 1-3/4" junk line in front bumper

5"x20' supply line in front bumper.

5"x10' supply line in compartment.


Engines also carry: portable Deluge, Water can, CO2, DryChem, Foam can, EMS bags, AED, Lucas CPR device, dewater pump, small tools, CO detector, 5-Gas Detector......etc......

3 of the Engines carry the FDNY style Hi-Rise nozzle.


There are 4 of the 11 Engines that carry 5" LDH as supply line in place of 3-1/2".


Again, this is a first for us with Ferrara as a manufacturer. Hope they work out well. 303 is our 2nd busiest engine, located in a busy fire-duty district, so we will see.
