RedactedNarrative: Parties were boating in approximately 12 feet of water. The winds were strong and the waves were substantial. The boat was stopped to allow the Operator and three children onboard to swim. Life jackets were not being worn while swimming. The boat did not anchor and was drifting in the strong winds and waves while the swimmers were in the water. One child began to struggle while swimming and the Operator jumped in to help. The Operator then began to struggle and slipped under the surface before the boat could reach him. The other adult passenger on the boat was not familiar with boat operation at all. The child was saved from the water and the boat drifted to shore. Two days of searching with drags and sonar were conducted. The victim's body floated to the surface on 6/9/2021 and he was recovered at 0641 hours.
