I would like to see statistics on that. That is not their purpose. Their primary function, as far as water activities, is to assure compliance with fishing laws. They don't get involved with boating laws.
Obviously, any boater, whether it be a F&G officer, Marine Patrol or Joe Citizen is going to assist any boater in distress if they happen upon them.
F&G does recover drowning victims.
