RedactedNarrative: Two subjects were on a vessel when the male became hot and wanted to cool off by getting into the water.  Shortly after getting into the water, he lost his grip on the ladder and the boat began drifting north up the channel.  He was a non-swimmer and immediately began struggling to stay afloat.  His wife threw him a rope but it wasn’t attached to the boat and she did not hold onto it.  She then entered the water to try to get to him before he submerged but was unsuccessful.  
  
  The male victim was later found deceased.  He had minimal alcohol consumption; his wife said he had 1 beer and 4-6 ounces of wine.
  
  Subject had had a stint placed in his heart about 11 years ago and was on high blood pressure meds.
