Police aboard inflatable boats and jet skis could also be seen defending the vessel.
The 47th G7 Summit in the village of Carbis Bay neighbouring St Ives will be held from June 11-13.
The gathering of world leaders has also made traffic problematic for residents of St Ives, where security details have required locals to show proper identification to get to their homes.
An estimated 6,500 police officers are set to be deployed across Cornwall as major protests are expected among them by environmental groups.
