MDC Police Officer of the Charles River Lower Basin on patrol in 1926. According to a Boston Globe article of the day, the speed of these boats were not publicly disclosed as the patrolmen were concerned that someone would modify or build their boat to go that much faster than the MDC Police could cruise.
