Tonight at the Culver Town Council meeting the Culver-Union Township Fire Department (CUTFD) received permission to purchase a Neoteric Hover Craft. For those of you interested in some specs, here you go. These are from the Neoteric website: This is a nearly new rescue hovercraft, with only 8 hours of operation. The craft has inline seating for four, and comes with a siren, PA system, 400,000 cp searchlight, red and blue LED light bar, rescue lift system, and stretcher mount. The engine is a 65 HP model with fuel and oil injection.

As I cautioned Mike, “If you don’t come up with a good name, there will soon be one and it might not be what you want.”
To get the ball started, here are a few off the top of my head:
