The US Coastguard has suspended its search for the missing Irish crew members of a yacht which hit rocks in San Francisco Bay at the weekend.
Two Corkmen were among a crew of eight on board the 38 foot vessel which was taking part in a race when it was hit by powerful waves – three people were rescued, while the body of another was recovered.
The Department of Foreign Affairs is providing consular assistance.
