what about inflating their jacket and sending them up with a surface marker bouy and hoping that someone gets to them? at worst this means that when you do get up there yourself they will have floated off, but they will still have a bouy and the boat (if there is one) can get to them sharpish. It does rather rely on your buddy also having a bouy though.
