Search suspended for missing 61-year-old boater in Hawaii

Search suspended for missing 61-year-old boater in Hawaii. The U.S. Coast Guard suspended active search efforts off O’ahu after a good Samaritan located a partially sunken vessel matching the missing boater’s description about 18 miles west of Waianae. The man, identified as 61-year-old Joseph “Chips” Correia III, was last seen early Wednesday morning on a fishing trip. The Coast Guard noted the search had been exhaustive and conducted under challenging conditions before the decision to suspend was made. Correia’s family thanked the community for the support, and KHON contributed reporting to the coverage.
