Stay with the boat

If you are close enough to shore; swim, then report.

If too far out; try to climb onto the boat or at least stay close and hold on to it. It is easier to spot a boat than a person lying in the water. And you use less energy so you will live longer wich in turn increases your chanses of survival.

If a small boat capsizes, the first thing to do is try and float on the back with toes pointed toward shore or downstream if in a river. Use the arms to try and push toward shore. Yell for help as loud and as often as possible. If a person can reach the capsized boat, one or two people can climb onto the keel of the boat out of the water.
