What does it take for Wildwood Crest lifeguards to stop talking and rescue someone in trouble? We watched with alarm as two young boys on boards were sucked further and further out into rough surf, but the lifeguards continued talking and did nothing. One boy we lost sight of several times, but still they continued talking. They gave a half-hearted wave for them to come back, but still sat and did nothing. Finally, one guard grabbed his board and swam out to get them. With all the talk of not going in unguarded water, going in guarded is no safer in Wildwood Crest.
