True, but the Captain is still a dumbass and shouldn't be bragging
about his clearly inferior "rescue" skill.- Hide quoted text -

Is the captain required to file any kind of incident reprot with the
athourities?

Yes - it was an overboard and the appropriate MAYDAY/Overboard
broadcast call should have been made with course and bearing - in
particular because he did not know the overboard situation existed
until well after the incident occured. At that point, he should have
initiated his rescue turn (pick the technique - Williamson, Anderson,
Scharnow or Quick although Quick in this instance wouldn't be the
best) and begun the search.

Once the incident was closed, it would have been investigated by the
appropriate maritime agency.
