Honeydew II search dives resume today

DIVE crews were due to enter the wreck of the Honeydew II again this morning to search parts of the galley and hold for signs of the its two missing crew members.

The coastguard yesterday reviewed video footage taken of the vessel by garda divers and, according to Declan Geoghan of the coastguard, the video showed some areas where the search may have been obscured by material, such as tables and chairs.

There were no dives on the boat yesterday but a shoreline search from Ardmore to Carnsore Point was carried out by 12 ribs, a helicopter and coastguard crews. However, they found no sign of Honeydew II skipper, Ger Bohan, or Polish crew member Tomasz Jagla.
