Fishing Trip Nightmare: Dragged Under in the Coral Sea

Real Survival Stories

Available for 278 days

Maike Hohnen is an experienced seaman. His 7-year-old son, Julian, loves getting out on the waves just as much as he does. Joined by a friend, Stephen, they fish the sparkling waters off Australia’s Sunshine Coast. They have no idea that, mere feet beneath them, disaster is brewing. Soon Maike will find himself adrift - in the middle of the ocean, in the middle of the night - with his little boy clinging on to him for dear life… A Noiser production, written by Jane Deith.
