RedactedNarrative: On July 17, 2015, at 0358 hours, Cordova AWT received information of an overdue boater who had left the Cordova Harbor on July 16, at approximately 1900 hours.  Cordova AWT responded, as well as the US Coast Guard and the US Forest Service, to an area the boater was last seen, within 2 miles of Cordova, on Hawkins Island.  A raft was seen upside down on the beach about 50 yards away from a seasonal residence cabin.   The 10 year old was found safe inside the cabin.  The boy and his father were trying out their new raft, when they started taking on water.  They both ended up in the water.  The boy was able to swim to shore with the aid of his life jacket.  The search for the father continues.  It was reported that he was not wearing a life jacket.
