A body has been found by a lifeboat crew searching for a man missing off the Cork coast.
A major operation was first mounted last night when a sailing vessel, with 3 people on board, failed to return to Schull as expected at 7pm.
It resumed this morning and two people were found on Castle Island near Schull.
It's thought they may have swum ashore when their boat got into difficulty.
The search for the third missing person resumed shortly afterwards and the body of a man was recovered shortly before 8.30 this morning.
Declan Geoghegan is the Coast Guard's Operations Manager.
