David Lesh was conducting a photoshoot late Tuesday afternoon of his new Beechcraft Bonanza, a plane that he had purchased only a few weeks ago, when he lost power and couldn't restart the engine due to "unknown circumstances".

"It skipped along the water a few times. There was like no impact. We were totally fine," Lesh described. "Got the door open right away, we piled out. I grabbed my phone, grabbed some stuff to float with and we stood on the wing as long as the plane was floating which was probably 30 seconds or 40 seconds."

The US Coast Guard responded quite quickly because of the presence of the accompanying plane from the shoot. "What was truly amazing about tonight was there was another aircraft on-scene that quickly responded," Lt. Commander Joshua Murphy said. "Contacted Air Traffic Control who knew to contact Airborne Coast Guard Asset and get us on-scene quickly."
