Boat
Patrol |
| Perhaps the most visible and well-known aspect of the Water Safety Patrol is its Boat Patrol. The Boat Patrol is made up of a fleet of 5 fully-equipped boats, manned by well-qualified, fully-trained crew members. |
 |
The Boat
Patrol has three main responsibilities:
- Rescue Operations
- Enhancement of law enforcement
through education
- Boater Assistance
|
|
 The
Boat Patrol is on duty from 8am to 10pm during the summer, and on-call
for emergencies 24 hours a day. The first Patrol boat is launched
in early May and taken out in late October. Crew members are certified
in water rescue, first-aid, CPR and boat handling. The crew constantly
trains throughout the season to prepare for all types of emergency
or assistance situations.
