THE only survivor of a tragic fishing accident that claimed at least one other crew mate has told rescuers he watched his mates vanish after their boat sank in a freak squall.

Professional fisherman Andrew Pisani, 33, swam 6km in cold seas in a bid to find help late on Sunday night, when his 7.5m boat sank about 9pm off Stansbury.

He was being treated yesterday at Yorketown Hospital for hypothermia and cuts to his legs from razor fish.
