What you can see in Atlantic City, NJ

It seems a couple kids wondered out to far and realized they were getting to close to the pier and could not get back to the beach because of the current.

Dramatic catch there Cory!

I'm a bit surprised about the peddle boats. In Belgium the lifeguards use powered, inflatable boats. Those must be quicker on the scene if something happens...

And queue the inevitable dope-slap from the father when they get back ashore. :P

Thank you, Guys!!

Yeah, I was lucky!!

Kris, they move those boats out pretty fast.  They got to the kids in no time.  They participate in Lifeguard contest all the time and need to be fast.

Yeah, I think a good whuppin was waiting for them after they got hugs for being o.k.!!

Can't say I've ever seen rowboats before.  I have seen the lifeguards use jetskis with a tow behind sled type thing before.  Those are pretty quick.
