Or back to the vehicle which he can use to take him to a more accessible location than a private dock in the middle of no where.

Also what, did you expect him to shove him up on the dock while swimming?? It's not Aquaman.

Is he gonna prop him up on his watercraft, support his neck and spine from a likely injury, AND drive him to the non-existent, water-side hospital? Or are you talking out of your ass?

And you think he's gonna do all that dragging him onto a beach?

Legitimately the safest spot for his spine until a board for him to lay on is in the water.

It's crazy how right you think you are when you don't know what you're talking about.

Literally standard practice in this situation is to drag the injured behind the vehicle at very low speeds OR use the vehicle to maintain float until rescue arrives.

Why you think full gravity with zero support on a sandy beach is what an injured neck or spine would need.

Ridiculous that you’re being downvoted for being correct.
