Trawler crew forced to jump into rough Gold Coast waves
A Queensland skipper and his two deckhands have been forced to jump from their fishing trawler after getting stuck on rough waves on the Gold Coast.
The crew have described the moment a freak wave smashed the boat, shutting down its power and leaving them at the mercy of mother nature. Out of nowhere, it just smashed (the boat), Deckhand Jordan Craig told 9News. A freak wave just came along, deckhand Tahnee Rolph said.
Water police and paramedics scrambled from both land and sea to meet the crew moments after they jumped off the ship into the rough waters, with the boat soon after running around.
