Emergency responders, law enforcement team up to monitor Port Huron Float Down [Image 2 of 14]
A U.S. Coast Guard boat crew from Coast Guard Station Port Huron, Mich. and other emergency responders aboard personal watercraft stand by to provide assistance as needed at the start of the unsanctioned marine event known as the Port Huron Float Down, during which more than 1,000 people gathered Aug. 16, 2015, to float 7.5 miles down the St. Clair River between Port Huron and Marysville, Mich., on the border of the U.S. and Canada in inflatable and makeshift rafts. More than a dozen federal, state and local agencies from the U.S. and Canada teamed up to monitor safety of participants, enforce safety zones and life jacket regulations, and ensure participants did not illegally cross international boundaries.
