UK Chris Ellery, missing, possibly at sea, Pembrokeshire, 1st Nov 24

[Luwin]

A land and sea search is underway for a missing man as his daughter has made a desperate appeal to find him. Chris Ellery went on a solo trip in Fishguard, Pembrokeshire on Wednesday, October 30, but failed to return home by his planned Thursday lunchtime.

His daughter, Kenzie Ellery, has shared a desperate plea for information on his whereabouts and help with the search. She explained that her dad was an experienced boat user who is "always very prepared for when situations go wrong" and that it is out of character for him to not be in touch.

Chris's daughter, Kenzie, has posted that "police and coastguards have been searching for him and have found his belongings on a cove you can only access by boat". Hopefully he has beached there deliberately, rather than it being a case of the boat (actually an inflatable dinghy) simply washing up there on its own.

Hopefully I am allowed to post this here:
