He started to swim (wearing his PFD) but the wind kept him from making headway and he soon became exhausted. I called NHMP with the above results—while a family member had launched a canoe. There was no rope aboard the canoe, so I threw a rope to tow the victim in. I launched our powerboat with difficulty, as it hadn't been started in two months and towed both of them in (both having become exhausted)."
