The Chicago Fire Boat – Engine 2 has officially returned to service after undergoing a full repair and repaint, marking a significant milestone for the city’s fire department. The vessel, named *Christopher Wheatley*, is a vital part of Chicago’s emergency response fleet, especially during water-based incidents or large-scale events.
The boat was recently taken out of service for necessary maintenance, and crews worked diligently to restore it to its original condition. The repainting not only improved its appearance but also ensured that it remains in top operational shape for years to come.
A photo by Tim Olk captures the freshly painted boat, highlighting its sleek design and the pride of the firefighters who maintain it. The image is part of a larger gallery showcasing various moments from the Chicago Fire Department’s operations.
This update comes as part of ongoing efforts to keep all emergency vehicles and equipment in optimal condition. With Engine 2 back on duty, the department continues to provide reliable support to the community, whether it's responding to fires, floods, or other emergencies that require swift action on the water.
