A marine search is ongoing for a local fisherman who reportedly left Fort Jeudy Bay on a fishing expedition aboard a 14-feet blue (outside) and red (inside) coloured fishing boat on Wednesday, 17 June 2020.
The man was reportedly about 2 nautical miles outside Point Salines when he encountered engine problems. An early afternoon and late evening search on Wednesday by a small vessel and the Coast Guard respectively, proved futile in locating him.
A marine search, which resumed today, Thursday 18 June 2020, has also proved futile thus far.
Vessels in the area are urged to keep a lookout for the missing boat.
