A young man's family watched in horror as he "tried to keep his head above water" before he died in a jet skiing accident.
The 26-year-old man died after he became separated from his jet ski at Goring-by-Sea, near Worthing, shortly before 6pm on Bank Holiday Monday.
Eyewitnesses said he was too far out from shore as lifeboat rescuers scrambled in vain to save his life.
