Discovery of body a relief for skipper’s family

For one family, the mourning can finally begin. For another, the agonising wait continues.

The body of missing skipper, Michael Hayes, one of two fishermen missing since the Tit Bonhomme sunk in rough seas over three weeks ago, was finally recovered from Glandore Harbour.

In a remarkable twist of fate, it was the skipper’s brother, Chief Super-intendent Tom Hayes, who spotted the remains.
