AN AIR AND SEA SEARCH has been mounted for Barbadians Arthur Alleyne and Sharon Went-Alleyne aboard the yacht Serenity.
The couple, who live in St Lucia, left there Saturday for a routine sail to Barbados and have not been heard from since.
Efforts by marine authorities in Martinique, St Lucia and Barbados to contact the couple have so far failed.
Arthur Alleyne is an experienced sailor and boat captain.
Their children are appealing for anyone in the surrounding islands with access to boats, light aircraft or helicopters to join in the search as the yacht may be drifting. (GC)
