RedactedNarrative: Boat motor and prop had become entangled in a navigational maker. The victim exited his watercraft and untangled the motor. After freeing the watercraft, the victim attempted to re-enter the boat without success. After several attempts, the boat began floating away from the victim. As the victim was walking out towards the boat, he stepped off an underwater ledge, where the water goes from 2 feet to approximately 20 feet in depth. The victim initially went underwater and re-surfaced. The victim then attempted to swim to safety but went beneath the water and re-surfaced 2 more times, before disappearing beneath the water's surface. Members aboard the boat attempted to throw the victim ropes and wearable life jackets, but their attempts were unsuccessful in saving the victim. An observant boater, noticed the victim's failed attempts to re-enter his boat and went to offer assistance. As the boater was approaching she observed the victim disappear beneath the water and dove in within 30 seconds and recovered the victim. The victim was pulled into the boat and CPR was performed.
