Indonesian rescuers end search for crew member missing from surf boat

Four Australians and two crew were saved after their boat capsized off Sumatra, but hopes of finding the remaining person on board appear over

Rescuers have ended their search for a missing Indonesian crew member one week after a boat with seven on board hit bad weather off Sumatra island, officials said on Monday.

The search was launched last week after authorities received a report that one of two boats headed for Pinang island from Nias island had failed to reach its destination.
