A British man had died off the coast of Melbourne after his surfboard snapped in rough conditions.
Strong winds of up to 80mph had been reported in the state yesterday. A 43-year-old friend had jumped into the water to try and assist him, but both ended up in difficulty.
A police helicopter winched them back to shore, but they were unresponsive and could not be revived. Emergency services were called to Frankston Beach in Melbourne's southeast at about 5pm local time on Wednesday.
