The Boat Patrols main duties are that
it is to make its way up and down the sea front keeping any jet skiers or
racing yachts away from the beach whilst keeping an eye out for swimmers
and inflatable's that may be drifting. Another task of the Boat Patrol is
that after a large ship has passed a heavy wash may occur. The boat should
follow the wash along the shore line keeping at a safe distance watching
for bathers and others who may unexpectedly find themselves in difficulty.
