With kayaking back in season, one Northeast Ohio fire department is investing in their water rescues with two new jet skis.
"We rent kayaks out of the Emerald Necklace here in the Cleveland metro parks," said Scott, manager and lead guide for 41 North Coastal Adventures.
"Since 2017, we responded to 15 water-related emergencies," said Chief David Novak with the Sheffield Lake Fire Department "We can get really close to victims without hurting them, like with a bigger boat, you need more manpower," said Lieutenant Brian Davis, Sheffield Lake Fire Department. "We've got three miles of lakefront here that we're responsible for and our fire stations less than a quarter mile on five great lakes, and this is something we really felt we needed to have," said Novak."Yeah, just use common sense, and you must respect the lake is very unpredictable. Things can change quickly," said Novak.
