There's a couple things you should do when someone on their boat falls overboard. The first thing you should do is scream "MAN OVERBOARD."

What is the immediate action to be taken when a person fall overboard?
The first action when a person goes overboard is to sound the alarm: 'Man overboard', followed by the side (port, starboard, stern) they went over. Then the crew person tosses a lifering to which is attached a strobe light; the coxswain turns the helm in the direction the person fell (port or starboard). Meanwhile the person who called the overboard stays with eyes riveted on the person in the water. When the boat comes about and is heading for the person in the water (PIW), command will decide weather to make a direct or indirect pickup. In nearly all cases picking up the PIW should be done with the rescue boat's bow heading into the elements- wind or sea. This approach provides for better control of the boat.

What is the origin of the idiom to go overboard?
It's a boating phrase. Overboard means to go over the board, which is part of the boat. If you go overboard on a boat, you fall out into the water. As an idiom, it has come to mean doing so much that it seems excessive.
