A Florida man who went missing after rough waters knocked him off his jet ski over the weekend is back on solid ground after a dramatic rescue.

Joseph Baricklow, 53, was reported missing after witnesses found his jet ski abandoned in the waters off the St. Lucie Inlet on Sunday, according to the Martin County Sheriff’s Office.

The agency said it deployed deputies working the 100-Shift, along with its Aviation Unit, Community Policing Unit and Marine Units to search for Baricklow.
