Bruce Buchanan, 51, died at Havasu Regional Medical Center following the accident, according to the sheriff's department's statement.

Buchanan and woman from Los Angeles were killed when the 35-foot Nordic twin motorboat they were on flipped around 8 p.m., the department said. Buchanan was unconscious and unresponsive when he was pulled out of the water by nearby boaters, the department said.
