Sarah Packwood, 54, from Warwick, and Canadian Brett Clibbery, 70, went missing on 18 June after leaving Nova Scotia, Canada, in their sailing boat a week earlier.

After they departed, Ms Packwood posted a farewell video message: “Captain Brett and First Mate Sarah set sail on the 2nd leg of The Green Odyssey onboard Theros – GibSea 42 foot sailboat. Powered by the wind and sun. Heading east to the Azores.”
