A great job by firefighters Hussey and Cronin navigating the rescue boat into an extremely hazardous environment directly into rough seas to rescue a person in distress in the water. Both members put themselves into harms way to remove the individual from the water with firefighter Cronin having to leave the boat and jump into the water to physically grab the victim and bring them back to boat.

Nahant Fire and Police Respond to Water Rescue Off East Point: Fire Chief Austin Antrim and Police Chief Timothy Furlong report that the Nahant Fire and Police Departments responded Saturday afternoon to a water rescue off East Point.

On Saturday, Sept. 5, at about 1:04 p.m., Nahant Fire and Police responded to a report of two boaters in distress in the water off East Point.

A preliminary investigation indicates that a boat lost power just off East Point. Another vessel stopped to assist the boat when a wave knocked two people into the water.

One of the boaters was able to get back aboard a vessel. The second boater was provided a life preserver and began swimming toward the rocks before becoming unresponsive in the water.

Nahant Fire responded to the area with its rescue boat and pulled him from the water. Firefighters immediately began providing lifesaving care.

The victim was brought by the rescue boat to the Town Wharf to an awaiting ambulance, then transported to Salem Hospital. His condition is unknown at this time.

The Swampscott Fire Department and Swampscott Harbormaster also responded and assisted at the scene.

The incident remains under investigation.

At tomorrow's Annual Town Meeting please consider supporting the "Full" override that is supported by the board of selectman, town administrator , fire chief, the Nahant Firefighters Association and Nahant call firefighters.

The current model of 2 full time firefighters on duty 24/7 and having a "callback system" of off-duty full time firefighters and call firefighters respond from wherever they may be has been in place for decades.
It is not a reliable or adequate model to respond to and handle calls for service. Please vote yes on the Full override!
