Crews in North Vancouver are conducting a dry run to train for potential boat fires using a mock tugboat, Seaspan Responder, designed to simulate fire scenarios. This training, led by Dwayne Higgins of Seaspan, focuses on the unique challenges posed by confined spaces and equipment on vessels. Local firefighters are also participating, emphasizing the importance of preparedness for increasingly busy waterfront activities. The $800,000 simulator aids in enhancing safety for both shipbuilders and emergency responders in Burrard Inlet.
