A kayaker who was thrown into the waters of Budgewoi Lake on Saturday, March 1, was rescued after struggling for almost an hour in rough conditions, emergency services have said.
Winds on the lake had been gusting at around 25 knots - or as much as 46 kilometres per hour, members of Marine Rescue said, creating a metre-high chop on the water around 3pm when the boater was reported to be in trouble.
