AIR and SEA SEARCH FOR MISSING NOVA SCOTIA FISHING VESSEL and ITS CREW OF FOUR

Aircraft and ships are continuing a search for a fishing boat with four people on board that’s missing in the Bay of Fundy.

So far, the search has turned up some debris, but it’s not known whether it’s from the scallop dragger “R-L-J” out of Digby.

A life-jacket and a picnic cooler have been found.

The 13-metre vessel went out fishing last week and was due back in port Sunday but failed to show up.

The vessel’s last known position was east of Saint John.

The names of those on board have not been released.
