The Coast Guard doesn't get enough love. Well, they get a bit of love on this blog because I appreciate what they do. They have a tough mission to do with a budget that is a rounding error on a failed defense program. I suspect it is going to get tougher.
This boat was patrolling the river. As I said, there were a few fishing boats on the river. They were trying to get their last bit of fishing in before it turned nasty.
They were moving fairly slowly amongst the boats.
And then I think they saw something.
Turned the siren on and told the boat to heave to and prepare to be boarded.
I don't think the people on the boat in question were doing anything wrong, it was just a safety inspection. The Coast Gaurdsmen were making sure that they had the required life vests and what not. Anyway, alot of people don't like the Coast Guard but not me.
