RedactedNarrative: Operator and passenger were sailing from Milwaukee WI to Racine WI in Lake Michigan. The jib line broke causing the sail to flap. Operator left the cock pit area to secure the sail and fell overboard. Operator (had a lifeline connection) was directed to the stern area. Passenger stated the operator was conscious while in the water. Passenger stated he was unable to physically lift the operator into the boat. The passenger looked for another line to assist as the operator, operator was still in the water and struck his head on the stern (5-8 foot waves) and became unconscious. Passenger later used a davit to winch the operator from the water and start CPR. A short time later Racine Fire / Rescue responded and extracted the patient who was later transported to Wheaton Franciscan Hospital. U.S. Coast Guard Station Kenosha boarded the sailboat and docked it at Reef Point Marina fuel dock.
