Woman survives 20 minutes under boat | Herald Sun

"A WOMAN was trapped under a yacht for more than 20 minutes while her friends clung on for their lives after the vessel capsized returning from a Bass Strait diving trip.

Gwen Fisher was stuck under the upturned catamaran after it was flipped by a wave just outside the heads of Port Phillip Bay.

Diving companion Rob Laurie went under the boat to find Ms Fisher and stayed with her in an air pocket until water police freed the pair, while their three frantic friends held on to the yacht's hull."
