Marine Patrol adds officers to Seacoast waters
The New Hampshire Marine Patrol expands Seacoast coverage with up to six new officers this summer. Officers Abe and Zobel note increased patrols and homeland security duties around Portsmouth Harbor while stressing strict enforcement against boating while intoxicated. The Seacoast sees several incidents from an 18-foot sinking boat near Rye to a capsized craft upriver, highlighting hypothermia risks in spring waters and the Piscataqua current.
