The man was pulled from the water by rescue crews and treated at the scene before being transported to the Royal Hobart Hospital.
Police said his condition was not believed to be life-threatening.
It remains unclear what caused the small vessel to capsize or how long the man had been in the water before emergency services were alerted.
