Missing British excursion boat Darlwin with 31 aboard
In Falmouth England a search continued for the 45 foot motor cruiser Darlwin and 31 passengers missing after a Sunday cruise along the Cornish coast. A battered white skiff, found drifting between 12 and 18 miles from the course, is the only clue as relatives and fishermen fear a capsizing in stormy seas near Fowey.
