In this photo print, we witness the proud moment when the London Fire Brigade takes delivery of their new fireboat, the Fire Swift. This remarkable vessel marks a significant milestone for the brigade as it is their first permanent addition to their river service since 1961. Crafted by Watercraft Ltd. of Shoreham, Sussex, the Fire Swift replaces its predecessor, the hired fireboat named Fireflair.

As an essential asset in safeguarding one of the world's most iconic cities, this fireboat symbolizes resilience and dedication towards ensuring public safety along London's waterways. Its presence ensures that emergency services can swiftly respond to incidents that may arise on or near these vital lifelines. Captured against a backdrop featuring Big Ben - an unmistakable UK landmark - this image encapsulates both tradition and progress within our emergency services during the vibrant era of the 1970s. This stunning print from Memory Lane Prints allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of this powerful vessel but also serves as a reminder of those who risk their lives daily in protecting our communities from potential dangers lurking beneath tranquil waters.
