 About Us
Overview
Rescue ONE Connector Boats is a leading provider of multi-use,
interoperable watercraft for the fire, rescue, and law enforcement
community. Rescue ONE
watercraft have a patented design that allows them to connect to any other
Rescue ONE Connector Boat in the world.
This unique capability enables endless possibilities and practical
applications. Whether it is
connecting boats end to end to form a large platform on which to perform
dragging operations or in a “T” configuration to perform heavy rescue
or recovery missions, Rescue ONE Connector Boats provide the most
versatile water missions platform on the market.
Founded in 1992 in Southside, AL, Rescue ONE’s primary goal for
developing Connector Boats was safety.
We realized fire/rescue and law enforcement personnel performing
water based missions needed to focus on performing that mission rather
than having to worry about the boat they were working from keeping them
safe and effective. Based on
this sole purpose, Rescue ONE developed a single boat that was ultra
stable and could stand up to extreme stress and load.
The founder, Tony Lumpkin, knew that if multiple boats of this
specification could be connected together, the capacity and stability of
the working platform would increase exponentially.
Mr. Lumpkin set out to accomplish that mission.
As public safety personnel needs grew, so did Rescue ONE.
We now offer a retractable dive platform for effective and safe
dive missions and portable fire pump that turns the Rescue ONE Connector
Boat into a water based firefighting tool.
Today, A Rescue ONE Connector Boat is the most versatile and affordable
fire/rescue and law enforcement inland watercraft on the market.
