Their presence is nice but it might be a little safer if they did something.

Just before dusk on Thursday we watched a swimmer in the middle of Alton Bay inside of Sandy Point cause havoc for about an hour. Several times he missed becoming chum by less than 50 feet as several boats veered away just in time. A neighbor called Glendale and about 15 minutes later we saw 2 McRibs come into the bay. The swimmer was gone before they got there however the MPs sat there for about an hour tied together. We then saw 2 PWCs come flying around the Sandy Point marker heading towards the gazebo with attached running lights. They passed the MPs at 200ft +/- and they did not stop them. Maybe the law has changed since I took the test.
