There is lots of missing info here. Where are you? what's the depth of water? What is the temperature of the water? What is the sea state? Lots of variables to this question, however there are a few things I automatically think of. Don't panic, try to keep calm, a proper mindset can save you even when odds are NOT in your favor. If the boat capsizes or gets swamped try and stay with the boat as long as possible. Even if that means just holding on to whats left. The boat is a larger target, making you easier to find you by Search and Rescue (SAR) assets. Even if you are wearing a Personal Flotation Device (PFD) if you can get out of the water, then try. Getting out of the water even if the air temp is freezing is better than staying in the water (Think of Jack and Rose, who lived, who dies.) Without more detail this is a good start.

What should you do if boat gets swamp?

If your boat gets swamped, first ensure everyone's safety by instructing all passengers to wear life jackets and remain calm. Try to bail out as much water as possible using buckets or pumps, and if the boat is capsizing, stay low to avoid tipping it over. If the situation is critical and the boat is in danger of sinking, consider signaling for help and prepare to abandon ship if necessary. Always have a flotation device or life raft ready for emergencies.
