Acknowledgments:
I’d like to thank my buddies in the GSCO Marine Patrol and Dive Team, my old SWAT team, the Navy IBU guys who went head-to-head with us, HSS International for providing such valuable training, Corpus Christi SWAT, the Grose Ile guys, and most importantly my two priorities: my family who endured my countless hours on the computer and the water and the Lord… my true tactical advantage.

Waterborne T.E.A.M.S. is more than just an acronym. It’s a strategy. A force multiplier. A solution.
This manual was written for the police or sheriff SWAT team that must operate on or near oceans, bays, lakes and rivers with jurisdiction over communities with waterfront neighborhoods, large numbers of recreational vessels, commercial shipping, and maritime industrial facilities. Ready or not, the chances are that these SWAT teams will eventually have to respond to a waterborne or waterfront incident.
This manual will enable SWAT teams to develop such a capability by taking advantage of the assets and skills of their local marine patrol and dive team without stressing SWAT budget or manpower. It will also give the SWAT team additional tactical options that may not have been realized or available in the past. At the same time, it allows the marine patrol and dive team to utilize their highly specialized skills and contribute to the overall success of the SWAT mission.
We’re already doing it…
SWAT teams across the country already take advantage of their own or neighboring agency’s specialized support units. These include: negotiators, helicopter units, medics, technical surveillance teams, K9
