Both men were wearing life jackets, but one man was under water for several minutes.

 This is not to spread rumors and hear say but I read the entire incident involved a mishap with the anchor and anchor line

The article states they hit an object in the water Maybe a buoy ?

We don't know the depth, or the strength of the current, or the type of life jacket he was wearing, or if he suffered a head injury when he fell out of the boat.

 

I'm just going by what little info was in the article I posted. I'm not trying to speculate any details.
