Today a search has resumed after two people were missing when their boat capsized off Coral Bay, along the midwest coast of Western Australia.
Four adults, two men and two women, were on board the six-metre aluminium half-cabin vessel near the North Passage when it hit trouble yesterday evening.
Two of the passengers managed to swim to shore and raise the alarm with Water Police alerted about 8.35pm before starting the search.
Local water police, Coral Bay marine rescue and the JRCC Challenger Jet are all assisting in the search.
The two who made it to shore received medical attention and are recovering.
The Department of Transport and Exmouth marine rescue are also assisting.
