"Guardian," one of two fireboats operated by the San Francisco Fire Department. Guardian originally served the city of Vancouver, British Columbia.
San Francisco's other fireboat, Phoenix, played a vital role in fighting fires which were caused by the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. Recognizing the value of fireboats to San Francisco, private donors provided the funds to purchase and refurbish Guardian.
