If an individual is involved in a capsizing and is too far from their boat which can be used to improvise flotation?
If an individual is too far from their capsized boat to use it for flotation, they should try to stay calm and conserve energy. They can use any available flotation devices, such as life jackets or other objects in the water, to help keep them afloat. If no flotation devices are available, the person should float on their back to minimize energy expenditure and keep their head above water while signaling for help if possible. It's crucial to stay as visible as possible to rescuers.
