Overview: We start with the Road Rulers on board the Coast Guard cutter Long Island. While manning the radar equipment, Kalle received a mayday message from a boater whose vessel had caught fire. Actually it's a drill, but why tell the cast and ruin the fun! Now the cutter is chugging towards the coordinates and it's rescue 911! Oscar and Erika jump into the life boat and Erika takes the wheel as they motor out to the drowning victim. Our Puerto Rican paramedic pulls the water-logged body into the boat as look-out helicopters roar overhead. Vince and Jake pull on their fire-fighting gear and grab one of the powerful hoses as Kalle directs the movement of their craft from the bridge. The boyz put out the fire as Erika and Oscar drag the charred and dazed victim onto the deck of the cutter.

Later that afternoon, captain John calls a debriefing and it's all hands on deck. The |
