RedactedNarrative: An off-duty county deputy was at his family's cabin when he saw a canoe in the water. He looked through binoculars and saw a person trying to get back into the canoe that was filled with water. 911 was called. The deputy and his father took a boat from the driveway, trailered it to the landing and the deputy went out to get the victim. The deputy could not lift the victim from the water into the boat, so he held on to the victim's life vest and dragged him to shallower water. A second boat came and they picked the victim up and put him in the second boat. He was brought to the landing where the ambulance was waiting. He was suffering from hypothermia.  Winds were strong and the water rough.
