Today we operate a fully equipped 25’ police patrol/rescue boat and a 13’ run-a-bout. Our staff includes; one (1) part time Associate Harbormaster, two (2) part time regular Manchester-by-the-Sea Police officers as assistants, all of which are fully trained in boat handling, search and rescue, fire fighting, boating laws and regulations, and policies and procedures of the Harbor, and one (1) part time Administrative Assistant. Although part of the Police Department, the Harbor Division maintains a separate office within the Town Hall. This eliminates some of the disruption that might occur were the Division housed within the Police Station. However, as part of the Police Department the very nature of our 24-hour service carries over to the Harbor Division. Messages are recorded, answers and advice are administered, records are received and issued, and dispatch functions occur. The significantly larger organization of the Police Department allows for the part-time status of the Harbor Division to operate unlike any other part time water unit on the North Shore.
