A couple have been found dead in a lifeboat after attempting to sail across the Atlantic Ocean.
The bodies of Sarah Packwood, from the UK, and her Canadian husband Brett Clibbery washed up in the boat on a beach in Nova Scotia.
They were last seen six weeks ago when they left Canada in a 12.8m eco-friendly yacht, called Theros.
They were heading to the Azores, a Portuguese archipelago in the mid-Atlantic, “powered by the wind and sun,” they said online.
Searches including by plane had been underway after they failed to arrive or communicate.
Clibbery’s son James announced the couple’s deaths on Facebook.
“There is still an investigation, as well as a DNA test to confirm, but with all the news, it is hard to remain hopeful,” he said.
