This vessel will be a regular presence on the waterways within city limits, acting as both a deterrent to unlawful activity and a source of support for the boating public.

In addition to these duties, the Marine Unit will be available to assist in drug interdiction operations when called upon, further strengthening the department’s overall public safety strategy.

Through this initiative, the Cocoa Police Department aims to maintain a safe and secure environment across all areas of the city, including its waterways.
