E.M. Cotter Conservancy
The oldest active fireboat in the world and was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1996
On January 29, 2016 the Fireboat E.M. Cotter Conservancy, Inc. was formed. The Conservancy is a collaboration of the Fire Bell Club of Buffalo, the Buffalo Fire Historical Museum, Firefighters Local 282 Union and the WNY Retired Firefighters. It is our mission to promote and support the Buffalo Fire Department Fireboat Cotter which is in need of some costly repairs: new propellers, shafts, engine overhaul and hull repairs. If your group is interested in a ride on the Fireboat Cotter, we will begin scheduling the 2023 season in mid April 2023. Dates are limited and are scheduled on a first call basis. *PLEASE NOTE THAT INDIVIDUAL RIDES ARE NOT AVAILABLE.* Contact Captain Sixt for details and restrictions at (716) 846-4265
