HOBO presents radar to Marine Police

With commitment to the safety of Lake Martin by the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency, we can expect to see a greater presence of Marine Patrol with new and improved boats and equipment on the lake in the near future. As many are aware, our lake has had only one officer and one boat recently to patrol the entire lake, but that is about to change.

The Lake Martin Home Owners and Boat Owners have always been committed to the improvement of all aspects of our lake, so the HOBO board decided to do what we could to help the Marine Patrol with its plans for the lake. Our board member, Gene Cody, met with ALEA and determined that the addition of computerized radar on the new patrol boat would help make the officers operating on the lake during darkness and inclement weather much safer.
