A man ejected from a boat on the Escambia River last month was taken to Jay Hospital to be treated for hypothermia. He was the lone occupant of a 14 foot aluminum boat when he made a quick turn and was ejected. When FWC officers arrived, they were initially unable to locate him even though his wife, who was on-shore, observed him being ejected and did not see him re-surface. The boater was treated for minor bruises on his hip as well.
