Two people located the body, face down, no PFD, and approx. 100ft north east of the kayak (A Lifetime Tamarack 120, rated for 1 person and 275lbs). They anchored their boat and jumped in the water. They righted the victim and began to swim him to shore. Once at shore, the victim was assessed, found not to be breathing or have a pulse, and CPR was started.

Once recovered, the body temp was (96.9 F) and despite efforts, was pronounced at 1614 hours.

Ex-wife indicated victim was having long time marital issues with his new wife, and how his father had committed  suicide. He also relayed that victim had driven cross country, to Lake Tahoe, to see his son from his first marriage. He spent some time with him, then gifted his truck to him and flew out. We discussed the notifications and I assumed he was going to contact all parties.
