I think I may have eyes on him, and it's what I think I'm seeing. He's still in the water, but he's standing up and looks to be 38. I'm waiting on a son of an officer. See him over to me to confirm. This is for when you guys stage next to Oz. (name withheld), walk back to what we got. First stage that the South Guns Boulevard boat launch, we're going to get our skis ready. We won't deploy just hit. That sounds great, Pat. We're going to set up the Instant Command Post in the parking lot to the east. Well, where the parking lot is for the access to Washington Street Bridge. It's like... Engine 5 and Truck 1 will be heading in with some throwbags and whatnot. I'll be out with Sheriff and Amar. the jet ski up in the area where the bunch of trees are and he's standing on land there. Yeah, if I'm looking at him, he's five. He just beached his jet ski. There's a couple of kayakers next to him. I copy. That would be it to your right of my patrol vehicle, correct? Just a little bit southeast of the old Washington Street exit. Nobody appears in distress. PDs here. We'll try to make contact. I'll advise what we need here. Yeah, copy. Does it look like both the jet ski and the operator are safe right now, Craig? We see the, it looks like the operator's not a big trainer. To the east of that location, he's walking on the list trainer here, just not appear in distress. Again, we'll advise here.
