From an article in the Daily Sun regarding a ride along with Marine Patrol

Smalls Cove

At Smalls Cove, the officers saw a problem with boats at anchor near a sandbar. Marker buoys had been set up 150 feet from shore, showing that boats should be at least that far out before anchoring.

A few boats were too close to shore, and the officers told the owners to move them. A jet ski was parked on the beach. Dunleavy found the owner at a nearby floating restaurant, determined he didn’t own the land where his personal watercraft was parked, and told him to move it.



All this was accomplished in a friendly, educational manner.

“The majority of time we’re dealing with boaters recreating and they’ve made a mistake,” he said as the patrol boat returned to headquarters in Gilford.

“We’re here to educate, and that’s our primary mission, to educate and maintain a safe environment to recreate.”
