Abstract: An apparatus for holding a pressurized fire hose with water flowing therethrough comprising an enclosure having a cavity therein, a centered aperture therethrough isolated from the cavity by a cylindrical wall extending from the front wall to the rear wall of the enclosure, two slots extending from the aperture to receive corresponding finger projections of a hose coupling and a depressured fire hose connected thereto to pass through the enclosure, the coupling then being rotated ninety degrees to maintain the position of the coupling and fire hose assembly, and an aperture through the front wall of the enclosure to allow a ballast material to be inserted in the cavity thereby providing weight to the enclosure to keep the fire hose stationary.
