    None!
    Arrested only 5 people for OUI, wrote a lot of tickets, mainly for lack of lifejackets.
    Any noise tickets?

    It was a great weekend with fantastic weather.
    We pulled 2 drunk guys out of the water floating in the middle of the river 100 yards away from there broken down boat.One of the guys didn't have a life vest and was really struggling when we drug him out of the water.The guy with the life vest didn't have the vest clasped and was so drunk it took 3 of us to get him over the edge of the boat. :hammerhea
    We took them to the nearest dock and dropped them off.I can only imagine what would have heppened if we didn't see these guys floating.
    We avoided any dents-dings or scratches on the boat eventhough there was more than a couple sea-doo's that seemed to be aming for us.
    we had a blast as always!!

    Divers search for missing Calif. man

    Entering the water without a life jacket may have proved fatal for a visiting boater Sunday afternoon, according to a spokesman for the San Bernardino County, Calif., Sheriff's Department.
    Sgt. Phil Odom said the victim, 35-year-old Kevin Hughes of Glendale, Calif., was boating with friends about 5:05 p.m. when he got into Lake Havasu without a life preserver, possibly to cool off.
    The vessel was stopped 150 feet north of Site Six off the Island - but combined winds of 35 mph and turbulence from holiday boat traffic produced swells up to 4 feet high. Hughes went under water and a friend, Darren Lyons, 38, Pasadena, Calif., jumped in to help him - also without a life vest, according to information released by Odom. The remaining passengers didn't know how to operate a boat, but threw Lyons a personal flotation devise as they drifted away from him.
    Boat occupants flagged down a SBCSD patrol boat at about 5:10 p.m. Rescuers retrieved Lyons, who was some 200 yards from his boat and about to drown, Odom said, but Hughes was under water. Rescuers returned to the spot where he was last seen, and began diving within 20 minutes of the original flag down. They conducted a systematic search until their air supply was depleted, they said.
    According to the department, Hughes is presumed drowned. Recovery operations using sonar and scuba divers will begin today, they said.
    At this point alcohol does not appear to have played a part in the accident, the sheriff's report stated.

    What's up Mandilon? I saw you this weekend in the chanel next to the edukator. I would have stopped and intoduced myself but there was no place to beach next to you and you saw the traffic. I'd like to meet some the ***boaters eventually.
