"In addition to patrolling the state’s waters, the Marine Patrol also responds to island police calls.
“In New Hampshire, we have numerous bodies of water with island populations in the summer and they have medical aid calls, domestic violence calls, burglary calls,” Dunleavy said. “Whatever happens in town happens on islands and we respond to those calls.”
It is interesting that they mention that as Gilford PD was acting as the "police" and MP was just the transportation for them when we had an issue. They did stay offshore and monitor by FLIR camera until the boat arrived with the PD officers.
