Marine 4 to Brooklyn. Marine 4. Marine 4, canvass from Domino Park up past North 12th Street, southbound current. We don't have any jet skis in distress. We also have the Coast Guard searching with us. Recommend a 10-46, Code 2. Maybe it's a different incident. Right, yeah, they heard from PD that anybody that was in distress on the jet ski, they all took off. Marine 4, 10-4, recommend a 10-46.

I wonder if the jet ski operator fits the normal description....they aren't allowed on the water past sunset, probably too much henny 🤣

Can't wait for all the jet skis to slowly sink to the bottom, one by dirt baggy one...
