Yes, A very daring rescue done. Only to find out the truth about the guy they saved. A shocking video to say the least.

Unfortunate that the boat owner lost his boat but a good thing they caught the thief.

When he gets out of jail, I hope he takes a boating course or 5. What a DA! 8-) er

Not sure. Definitely a cockpit model. Was originally thinking something like a 430 Cockpit, but those aft portlights are way too long. Maybe that's just a painted stripe to line up with the portlights?

Californians would be a good choice too, but I think the radar arch is WAY too different.
