Welcome Aboard
The
Marine Division of the Jackson County Sheriff's Department
is responsible for the enforcement of the marine safety
laws on the 22 Lakes and 4 rivers that are located within
the County of Jackson. Although primarily assigned
to enforce marine safety violations, the Marine Division
members are often the first responder or back up unit to
the Road Patrol membership. A large portion of the
divisions responsibility begins before the boating season
starts completing inspections on boats, liveries, and
public marinas.
All
members of the Marine Division are sworn Deputy Sheriff's
with full powers of arrest. The entire membership is comprised
of seasonal employees who contribute their time away from
their full time employment to ensure the practices of safe
and responsible boating operation.
A major
responsibility of the Marine Division is the boater safety
training program. This program provides hundreds of hours
of boater safety education and certification to young adults
who either reside permanently or seasonally within the County. We
will be posting a schedule of training dates here as they
become available.
Training
All
Marine Division members are emergency medical technicians,
several are paramedics. Each member is an accomplished swimmer
and many are NOMI certified divers who have been trained
in underwater body recovery. Each member receives annual
training in law enforcement issues, marine safety, first
aid, alcohol enforcement and various other related programs.
Equipment
The
Marine Unit presently has three 20' Sea Ray outboard motor
equipped units, a 17' aluminum rapid water rescue unit and
two Yamaha Wave Raider III 1100 jet skis. All units
are towed by four wheel drive patrol vehicles.
Each
unit is equipped with first aid and emergency medical ,
scuba diving, water recovery and marine safety equipment. And
the most significant equipment of all sun tan oil and insect
repellent.
Stop
back often, we will be posting boater safety tips and information.
If you have Marine related questions or are getting ready
for boating season and would like to schedule an inspection
give us a call at (517) 768-7998.
