  On 03/17/2014, at about 11:00 a.m., this vessel was drifting in Silver Lake located near Medical Lake in Spokane county WA. Operator and his wife were fishing. 
  
  The couple launched their canoe and started fishing at about 10:30 a.m. At about 11:02 a.m., the wind started to blow which resulted in a slight chop on the water. When one of the two shifted their weight, the canoe capsized sending them both into the frigid water. 
  
  Wife had a Type 3 PFD on. Operator was not wearing a PFD. Both parties left the capsized canoe and started swimming for shore approximately 300 M away. A fisherman in the process of unloading his vessel heard the couple yelling for help and quickly went to their aid. Both Operator and Wife were transported by ambulance to Deaconess Hospital in Spokane for treatment. Both were treated for mild hypothermia and released later in the day.
