Wasn't there a story, maybe a year or two ago, about one of the rescue boats getting into trouble down at the weir/Harvey Passage? I remember the press reports mentioning civilians were on board and there were some tense moments before they were rescued. I have been in the side channels when they come flying through and thought to myself, how ironic, they are the most dangerous thing out here. That type of watercraft should only be used on the river for emergencies. Routine patrols on sunny days are more about enforcement and should be carried out with the stealth paddle craft afford. Seeing them operate that jet boat I understand why they aren't allowed within the city.
