RedactedNarrative: 2 men were preparing to moor their sailboat when the swinging boom struck one of them, knocking him unconscious, and overboard.  The other person on board donned a lifejjacket and went overboard to help his friend.  He was able to get him back into the boat, but was unable to re-board himself, and found himself exhausted, about 15 yards from the boat.  By this time help was on the way, and one rescuer entered the sailboat to begin CPR while the other took the rescue boat and picked up the other.  The unconscious man was brought to shore and delivered to the hospital, where he recovered.
