KATHARINE SCHROEDER PHOTO | A look inside one of the control rooms of Fire Fighter, the famed fireboat docked in Greenport.

Representatives from the East End Seaport Museum met with retired fireboat Fire Fighter’s president and director Charlie Ritchie and members of the press Saturday morning for a tour of the boat, which is presently docked at Mitchell Park Marina in Greenport.

The 134-foot Fire Fighter, which was in service for the New York City Fire Department from 1938 until 2010, will be offering tours in the coming months.
