The following incident took place on April 24, 2010, at approximately 1558 hours.

According to a sole witness, the operator of Vessel I was rowing the canoe when he capsized.  He was able to pull the canoe to a banking, bail out the vessel, and re-board.  He then capsized a second time for unexplained reasons, and was unable to get back into the canoe.  The witness jumped out of her own kayak and situated the operator of Vessel I so that his face was above water. The witness had a neighbor contact 911.  EMS arrived on scene and transported the injured party to Lakes Region General Hospital, where he displayed symptoms of both hypothermia and a stroke.  He was airlifted to Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center where he was diagnosed with a stroke, brain tumor, bleeding of the brain, and cancer.  It is unclear whether the stroke caused him to fall out of the canoe, or if the capsize contributed to the stroke.
