In Pennsylvania we will tow a disabled boat to "nearest safe harbor" as long as we are not busy with enforcement duties. Additionally, if a boat was involved in an accident we are investigating or we arrested the operator for BUI and have no one safe to release the vessel to we tow.
@@izzimichaels2892 I boat in Florida and I don't run PWCs, but I believe PWC captains don't need a license. I'm thinking it may have been kept too long or reported stolen. All wild guesses of course.
Probably rental jet skis and they kept them longer than they was supposed to and the rental place had to get the law officers assistance to retrieve them back.
The Coast Guard does a fine job on the Oregon coast. Tillamook Bay jetty. They have vessels that can turn upside down and right themselves. From the Columbia river to South of Depoe Bay. Can’t wait to explore the East Coast. 06 Alumiweld Striker/outboard with a little merc. Lol
I lost power once in high winds and 3' waves. I was in a shipping channel (40+' deep), and my anchor line wasn't long enough. I was pushed to the seawall and was getting horribly beat up. Tow boat was 45 minutes out. I called the local police marine patrol to get me off the seawall, and they handed me off to the tow boat when it arrived. I had a couple of my grandkids with me, but I had placed them on the seawall as soon as we got close to it to keep them safe. They were upset because they didn't like seeing their grandma becoming a bloody mess from trying to keep the boat from getting too beat up. Fenders were useless in that scenario. Cops got the kiddos off the seawall and then threw me a tow line.
Sherrif does it on lake and river if there. We don't have tow boat service south of Portland oregon. Even on ocean out of newport! Fellow boater or coast guard bless their hearts!!
I bet the officers pulled him over for an infraction, ran the number and it was reported stolen. Maybe not by the rider because he wasn't arrested, but at some point.
Seems it would be a safety hazard to leave them floating in the middle of the water. I would imagine it would be in everyone's best interest to get them to a safe point in a timely manner
When I worked Fire Rescue on the North Shore of Boston, we would never tow a disabled vessel. We were focused on life safety not vessel salvage. We'd tell captains "throw the hook and hope she holds. We're here for YOU, not for the boat."
FDNY towed me out of the East River to the Navy Pier. I had an engine casualty. Another Captain friend nearby took my tow line and we went on our way, to get the problem fixed.
Our boat broke down at the confluence of the St. Croix and Mississippi Rivers. The Sheriff would have towed us to nearest ramp but not 1.5 miles to our marina. We called our marina for a tow but managed to get it started.
Do people not realize that you go around the post and tie the line to the cleat on your vessel? This gives control to the crew on the vessel and is safer than having someone on the dock.
Oh come on, let's get serious. Look at where they are; most have probably never taken any training, hand anyone teach them or read any material on the matter.
Thatz no rental. Hate assuming, but "it lookz" like a 2nd hand Ski and registration wasn't changed, lol!! Impounded in the water...only in MBR😂 Just can't make it up man 😂 and Bimbo alert 😂😂😂
They towed the ski because it's evidence or was being operated in an unsafe manner -- Kinda the way a car gets impounded when there's a DUI on the road.
I sincerely doubt the police _in Florida_ would go to that much effort for a paperwork issue. You get a ticket and fine for a registration or insurance issue, but they're not going to seize a ski or boat for that.
@@integr8er66 Not necessarily, if the cops already knew someone else had committed the theft and resold it. Or if the "theft" actually boiled down to a dispute or contract disagreement and there was a court order or something like that to confiscate the thing.
When you see Miami Dade towing a boat you know someone is getting fined. Their job is to make money for the county. Not the popular belief that they are there to keep you safe.
Tell me you have a power boat without telling me: " I don't need to learn all these knots," " I invented this knot - it's so good it's impossible to undo," "I don't need no stinking fenders," " One line is perfectly fine to securely dock my boat," " See, you use the loop on the cleat and toss the free end onto the dock, and it gets wrapped around the pylon a few times. That way you don't need ANY knots." "No, I never drove a trailer before - how hard can it be?"," Don't need life preservers - we are not sinking, boomer." " It's perfectly legal to have beer while steering a boat,"" So how do you park a boat?"
Nothing pisses me off like somebody lunging off the boat which shoves the boat back off the dock. Why the hell people can't understand simple physics, you know equal and opposite reaction??? Just step off onto the dock, don't jump...smh
Those ladies can clean my boat any time. I'd even buy a boat for them to clean.
and they can towel off the seats with their fake long hair!, 😂
Impounding the ski.
Look at 2:40 at the grill on the right on the boat there is hot dogs sticking out the back of it lol
You Dog, You Made Me Look. Ha.
😂😂😂
The Cleaning Ladies were more than likely wiping a year's worth of storage mold off....
You could tell the upholstery wasn't nice from the back of the seat.
Been there done that
Yeah, that thing is a hoopty. Lol
It could be an issue with the registration or maybe the Jetski was reported stolen
That boat with the ladies cleaning, gives new meaning to "the thin blue line" holding the boat. That is really a skinny line.

pennsylvaina mandates that the operator must have a pwc license. maybe the driver was unlicensed?
Sure looked like law enforcement action. I doubt the jet ski was put in the water by a flat bed.

Hey thanks for what you do, brother. Former LEO here.
@izzimichaels2892 no specific PWC "license" in FL. 14 years old to operate but 18 to rent AND Boater Safety ID if born after 1/1/88.
The jet skiers were probably drinking.
Keep cleaning baby keep cleaning 😌
Probably rental jet skis and they kept them longer than they was supposed to and the rental place had to get the law officers assistance to retrieve them back.
I'm not sure the police would do straight-up rental recovery work, but one way or another, I think that ski had been reported stolen.
@@pulaski1 not on land but maybe on water though. IDK

Wow, very lucky indeed. Small problems can turn nasty quick on the water.
IN North Florida I was once towed by the Sheriff's department when Tow Boat US declined to get me. ! Boycott Tow Boat !!!
that jet ski was a rental that went M.I.A.
this
Yeah, those girls will help you with a dirty boat. ;-)
Protect and Serve.
It's miami! Cops taking care of his dealer, bringing the package in
Sherrif does it on lake and river if there. We don't have tow boat service south of Portland oregon. Even on ocean out of newport! Fellow boater or coast guard bless their hearts!!
I love how they just casually put the entire front hatch of the cabin into the boat 3:49 😂
Wow I missed that, I was staring at other things.
I bet the officers pulled him over for an infraction, ran the number and it was reported stolen. Maybe not by the rider because he wasn't arrested, but at some point.
This seems like the most likely answer.
Rental. that went over time they will report stolen
Have a feeling its not just the boat that's dirty
They got their jet ski repossessed
Seems it would be a safety hazard to leave them floating in the middle of the water. I would imagine it would be in everyone's best interest to get them to a safe point in a timely manner
Maybe a spring line, they work in getting off the dock and pulling up to the dock.
No they use self tanner they probably didn't realize it would get all over the seats
Friends and family

Another reason to hate Boston! As if you needed more than a few hundred, starting with the accent

Ten flippers on the bow bad boy
We all know sweetheart you want a response way to jig the internet😂🎉
I'm betting the Male on the jet ski is law enforcement
Like you need that big radar spinning there.
@UQRXD they're not going to power down the RADAR, they're going back out shortly.
So all you do is put it on STBY@@SARDOGFL
No radar needed at dock! Silly

I know one thing depends on the deal with Sea Tow shysters.
Funny they took the jet-ski but not the operator if it came back stolen?
Not up-to-date registration would be a ticket.
This Bronco's Guru has never driven a boat!!! But yet he criticizes everyone else.
Thatz no rental. Hate assuming, but "it lookz" like a 2nd hand Ski and registration wasn't changed, lol!! Impounded in the water...only in MBR😂 Just can't make it up man 😂 and Bimbo alert 😂😂😂
The police on our lake tow people regularly.
Likely the jetski comes up as stolen.
Obviously they towed in a fellow officer.
Watching people who can't even tie a line to a dock makes me think I don't want to be near them on the water.
Baltimore city police towed me once. ❤
"Courtesy" tows would preclude them from responding to any real incidents; thus I would imagine it is against policy for most agencies.
Maybe you should go to Miami boat ramp channel
It depends on if there are hot babes on the boat. If so, police will do anything you need.
👍👍
Arrested the boat?
They towed the ski because it's evidence or was being operated in an unsafe manner -- Kinda the way a car gets impounded when there's a DUI on the road.
Where i live the sheriff towes you back
Merc at 210 wasnt pumpin water…
They stuffed it.
Could the marine police be impounding the skis due to expired registration?
I sincerely doubt the police _in Florida_ would go to that much effort for a paperwork issue. You get a ticket and fine for a registration or insurance issue, but they're not going to seize a ski or boat for that.
Here the dnr will give you a tow if you get in an accident.
Probably off duty cops
The Police are there to Protect and Serve. Why do you find it odd that they would be serving someone's need?
CUbans and Mexicans sure now how to party🥳🎉
Ma man had no life jacket I think. You see him with one on but then give it to the officer in the boat 🤔. What’s the rules in Florida for life jacket
INPOUNDING THE THE JET SKI EITHER BEHIND ON PAYMENTS OR WAS REPORTED STOLEN
You're looking at more liability leaving someone stranded on the water to wait for a tow.
"I'm sorry that you got scammed, but you should have known that a jet ski doesn't sell that cheap unless it's stolen." - Cop
Drunk-driving or stolen jetski probs.
No if either was true they would be in cuffs
@@integr8er66 Not necessarily, if the cops already knew someone else had committed the theft and resold it. Or if the "theft" actually boiled down to a dispute or contract disagreement and there was a court order or something like that to confiscate the thing.
7:00 song name someone ? :D
Our local law enforcement would arrest or shoot us,USA USA USA 🇺🇸
It’s common sense
They obviously were towing the JetSki they got in trouble for something they would never tow them in. It’s too much of a liability.
DUI
No different than a cop car pushing a out of gas car the last block to the gas station
Rentals? Ran out of gas because they don't know anything about the skis?
This is not rare. Depending on the scenario, the Police will lend a hand and tow your PWC.
that gut not helping oh boy
?? At their discretion, Law Enforcement can do pretty much whatever they want.
Evidence in a crime/ accident.

Sure thing Danny defendant. 👍

Much adu about nothing re police enforcement
I don't even want to watch his trash on what you're putting up
Nothing pisses me off like somebody lunging off the boat which shoves the boat back off the dock. Why the hell people can't understand simple physics, you know equal and opposite reaction??? Just step off onto the dock, don't jump...smh
Because Ya can't fix stupid. Music and dancing on the dock-------- stupid.
No one gets off my boat until it is secured to the dock with at least a single midships line. No need.
