Weekends are usually a busy time for us, thanks to all the half-cocked boaters that love to wreak havoc on our otherwise calm waters.

The water was flat as glass in the inlet as we made our way towards the still pinging distress beacon.

Our V hull center console patrol boat was skimming across the water at 75% throttle as we cleared the 12 clicks that separated us and our newest customer.

We had received word that repeated hails on the emergency channel were getting no responses.

There also happened to be a small sport fishing vessel in the area that was offering to check it out whilst we made our way there.

Any help we got before making it there may mean the difference between someone living and dying.

We cracked the throttle fully open as we shot towards the two vessels, warning the fishing vessel to keep its distance.

Any abandoned vessel is treated as a crime scene until negligence or non-criminal causes can be determined.

We made it there in record time, as two small dots appeared on the horizon and rapidly grew into medium-sized vessels.

The fishing vessel was similar to our patrol boat, just minus the gun mounts and semi-enclosed center console.

We hailed them as we cut throttle and coasted in, gently bumping their side as we maneuvered alongside them and tethered the two boats together.

After initial introductions and verification, we got down to the dirty business at hand.
