RedactedNarrative: On May 8th, 2013 at approximately 18:01, I, Ranger received a telephone call from Sergeant concerning a boat incident that had just occurred on West Point Lake.  I proceeded to call the Troup County 911 non-emergency number to get further information concerning the incident.  The dispatcher advised me of a boating incident on West Point Lake just north of Highland Marina, and that the subject was floating on a tire.  The dispatch began to describe to me what the individual was observing and I then advised her that it sounded like he was located around the Troup County water intake system.  
  
  At approximately 18:30, I arrived at Highland Marina and observed Emergency Medical Services administering aid to Subject.  I asked Subject if he was alright and to explain to me what had happened.  Subject stated that he had been fishing and running the vessel on the lake. Subject was traveling south bound on the Chattahoochee River arm of the lake when the shifter began to shift in and out of gear.  Subject then stated the vessel began to operate erratically and that the engine then became seperated from the stern of the vessel.  The vessel then began to take on water at the stern.  Subject then decided to call 911 and stated that he stayed with the vessel until he could no longer stay in.  Subject then grabbed a spare trailer tire that was in the boat and began to float in the lake.  Subject was rescued by an off duty Emergency Medical Service personel that had heard the call on the county radio.  Subject was advised that I was making a boat incident report and that I was turning over the information to the Army Corp. of Engineers.  Subject was treated and released by Medical personel on site.
