Information upon which analysis is based was obtained from heads of 15 Fire Departments operating fire boats; information covering 26 fire boats, 13 steam and 13 motor, is not complete particularly in case of motor boats; fuel costs analysis is based upon actual fuel bills for 1939; specific data as to exact kind of fuel are given in only few cases; data on boiler efficiencies and steaming capacities as well as on actual tests are not available.
