Default Another thought

Tossing the swimmer a floatation device sounds like a good option. Another option might for the swimmer to hang on to the stern of the boat, assuming their arms have the strength to do so. They could then be towed assuming that the stern is now not so low in the water that water comes rushing into the cockpit if you are not using a spray skirt. It may be helpful to practice these ideas before the day of the marathon to see how they work.
