No problem but it got me to thinking about it. They would both need an additional boat to do the exchange so each would either need a helper or bring a dingy to get out or get back. If they made the exchange right on the border (pretty easy with GPS) and both reported to their respective customs on return, would it be illegal? Also, would they both have to self quarantine for 14 days after they got back? Beats me.
For all practical purposes, if all parties reported to their respective agencies that should satisfy reporting requirements as long as their vessel was available for further inspection if that was required by U.S. CBP or Canadian CBSA.
As far as the 14 day quarantine, I have no idea. Not a Federal requirement. Seems lately these orders / requirements are issued by state or city authorities.
Good discussion.

With few exceptions (essential workers etc) persons entering Canada are required to self quarantine for 14 days. Persons transiting to Alaska are one of the exceptions, that is why there are strict rules about how how they are to do it. I didn’t know if the US has similar rules. Some neighbours of ours who returned from Arizona in May received a visit from police to see if they were complying.
