Two jet skiers stranded since Saturday night were rescued from small islands off of Staten Island Sunday morning, police sources said.
The FDNY Marine division discovered the first jet skier on the West Bank Lighthouse island while patrolling the area after 8 a.m. Sunday, and took him to Staten Island University Hospital North.
His pal, a man in his 40s, was also stranded since Saturday night. NYPD Harbor, Aviation, and Emergency Services units launched a search and found him on the rocks on Swinburne Island near the Verrazano Narrows Bridge, sources said.
The second man was also taken to Staten Island University Hospital North to be treated for hypothermia.
