Station Jones Beach's crew works as a team to respond to marine incidents in our area of responsibility. BM3 Saunders, FN Holthaus, and SN Cale work together here to monitor as our boat crew prepares to get underway to respond to an aground vessel that's been unable to maintain sufficient communications with the Coast Guard and which had no life jackets on board.

Today we said goodbye to SN Cirenza who departs soon for ET "A" school.

Our crew responded to a 45’ fishing boat that was disabled and adrift with one person on board 17 miles offshore. Due to the distance offshore and concerns about the potential for the conditions to worsen, our 45’ RB-M took the trip out to make sure nothing happened to this unlucky fisherman. The vessel was moored at the nearest safe haven after the four hour mission. Bravo Zulu to our great response crew!
