The Vista Fire Department is proud to announce our new Seagrave Custom pumper!

Engine 141 is a 2016 Seagrave Marauder II Stainless Steel Custom Pumper manufactured by Hudson Valley Fire Equipment of Brewster, New York. In consultation with Seagrave and Hudson Valley Fire Equipment, specifications for the new Engine were made by Captain Mike Peck, Firefighter Sean Kelly, Ex-Chief William Dingee, Vista Fire District #1 Chairman Steven Woodstead and Ex-Chief Robin “Duffy” Price.

The Vista Fire Department will be placing the new Engine into service once all equipment is placed on the rig and all Vista Fire Department members are trained on the new apparatus. The piece of Fire Apparatus being replaced is Rescue 13, a 1990 GMC Rescue, while the current Engine 141 will now be commissioned as Engine 143 and operate as a rescue pumper going forward.

The Vista Fire Department is a Fire & EMS agency that responds to about an average of 250+ calls per year serving the citizens in the Vista Fire District.
