Don'tcha HATE it when this happens?
NEWPORT NEWS, Va. - The city‘s $385,000, state-of-the-art fire boat sank Wednesday, still tied up at a dock and without ever being put to use.
The fire department had not even taken ownership of the 33-foot boat because it was waiting for the manufacturer, MetalCraft Marine of Canada, to finish installing electronic equipment, department spokeswoman Dana Perry said.
