Towing sunken kayaks - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I have been pondering the question if someone got in trouble and started sinking or at least was full of water would you be able to tow them any distance say to the shore ?

I believe most SOT's will sink ? not 100% sure,,but the bouancy would be neutral so they would sink very slowly ? give them a tow and keep moving you would make progress slowly maybe ?

Just asking the question,,if it happens will need to act fast,,whether thats to let them sink or try and tow them.
