Av Mason found himself preparing to sacrifice his life to save his daughter’s, after 30 freezing minutes in high swells off Western Australia’s north-west coast at the weekend.

“I remember thinking, I never expected this is how I was going to die, and I never ever expected my kids to not make it past their age they are now.”

He joined Gary Adshead to tell his story after a rogue wave capsized their new $170,000 boat, and he found himself fighting for his own, and his children’s lives.
