First, its the MOUTH they try to keep above the surface as long as possible. That is, they will tilt the head back to keep the mouth above the surface. The second thing they do is to raise one hand above the surface as though to call for help as they are no longer able to use the voice.
Excellent point, from the voice of experience. Thanks for that.
