Episode Details

Reedley’s fire department just dropped a major upgrade: an 18-foot rescue boat that’s already saving lives — and it’s not just for show. Replacing two jet skis, this beast can haul more firefighters, gear, and even victims on backboards, making multi-person rescues and stabilization a breeze. With temps climbing and folks flocking to waterways, safety’s never been more critical. Fire Chief Michael Canales says locals are already cheering it on. The boat’s already been put to work — even helping douse a river fire. Funded by $50K in grants from Sierra Kings Healthcare District and the Elizabeth Vines Grant, this isn’t just a boat — it’s a lifesaver. And it’s not for patrols — only emergencies. Official unveiling this Tuesday.
