Summer is a busy time for the FDNY’s Marine Battalion. On Wednesday evening, Marine 1 worked to secure a wrecked jet ski to a floating dock at Pier 83. The Marine Battalion chief’s boat came up from Brooklyn as well and is visible in the background in the photo below. The jet ski had struck a submerged piling while traveling inside the pier line south of Pier 76. The riders were on the dock speaking with NYPD at this point and did not appear to be injured. Saturday brings the annual “jet ski invasion” to the East and North Rivers, with up to 800 riders expected—perhaps a lot of fun if you are on a jet ski but pretty annoying for everyone else on the river.
