Subj: Hillsborough County  Boating Fatality



On Tuesday, October 27, 2009, two Florida men were  fishing from a 22-foot 
vessel that was anchored in Tampa Bay off of Port  Manatee. The occupant, 
who was fishing from the front of the boat fell  overboard. The operator gave 
the subject a life jacket, but he never put it  on.  The operator then 
attempted  to get the victim back onto his  vessel, but was unsuccessful due to 
his inability to lift him.  The  victim became unconscious, but the operator 
continued to hold onto him for a  short while.  The operator let go of the 
victim to call for help and  the victim floated away face down.  The victim’
s body was located  approximately 4 hours later and he was pronounced dead.
