Coquitlam 3: Rescue Boat

 

Coquitlam 3 is a 23’ Aluminum Shallow Water River / Lake / Ocean Boat commissioned in 2021

 

Coquitlam 3 is the team’s rescue boat. Ground Search and Rescue in BC includes inland waterways, and since Coquitlam is bounded by the Fraser River, Pitt River, Pitt Lake, Indian Arm and Burrard Inlet, and contains several lakes and rivers, we frequently require a boat to transport members or rescue people.

 

Coquitlam SAR trains for swift water rescue and Coquitlam 3’s Jet Drive provides us with a safe way to get in and out of difficult locations on the water.

SAR Volunteers that are part of our Marine Response group are trained to Transport Canada’s Boating Safety Standards as well as SVOP and MEDA3.
