What is the proper location of this incident?

Breezy Point in the Rockaways but doesn't PAPD patrol northeastern portion of Jamaica Bay aroung JFK Airport?

 

[MP1234]

Almost sure they were doing a training exercise. 8 people swam to shore and 3 were picked up by the marine unit.

Almost certainly more than meets the eye.

A 2010 article concerning these "Moose" boats........i think if the guy on the stranded jet ski had not got into JFK through the "back door " a few weeks ago these boats would still be sitting on land...........scroll down for the complete story...........    http://articles.nydailynews.com/2010-07-25/local/27070731_1_expensive-boat-high-tech-boats-airport-fees

If they ever figure out how to properly operate these boats, it will prove to be another headache for the fire department. The P.A. cops already run around on the highways outside the airports buffing car wrecks with their rescue trucks. Expect them to start buffing water rescue calls too. Airport security isn't newsworthy enough for that agency.
