‘We want them back and won’t stop until they’re found’

Coastguard officials confirmed that the wreck of the Honeydew II had been found at about midday, when another trawler grappled its side on the seabed, taking away a handrail which allowed search teams to establish that it was the vessel which sank last Thursday week.

The wreck is lying in about 30 metres of water, 3.6 miles south-east of Ram Head in Ardmore Bay.
