Water Operations Team

The Water Ops Team is composed of several members of the Rescue Squad who have specific and extensive training in dealing with emergencies that arise on the water.

Our equipment for water rescue includes a Multi-Stack trailer for hauling boats and equipment, a Ready-Out trailer for flatbottom and inflatable boats as well as other equipment, two flatbottom boats, an inflatable Zodiac, two pontoon boats, and various other water rescue tools.

Madison County contains many bodies of water, including the Tennessee and Flint rivers, which citizens enjoy year-round. The Rescue Squad is an advocate of responsible boating and water safety in general, but should a water emergency arise, the Water Team is always ready to respond and preserve life and property.
