GAINESVILLE - Two were treated for hypothermia after being pulled from the cold waters of Lake Lanier Wednesday night.

The Hall County Sheriff's Office says the men were found in the water near Aqualand Marina. A companion was on the banks of the lake.

All three had been in a sailboat which was found nearby and as one deputy put it "in good working order."

There's no word on what happened, but the sheriff's department reports that alcohol was involved. Both men did have on life jackets
