Authorities are gravely involved concerning the welfare of 80-year-old Swiss yachtsman Peter Baggenstos who was final seen in Hobart almost two months in the past.
The Swiss nationwide set sail for New Zealand on his 13-meter yacht “Girl Lay” on December 1.
The yacht’s transponder stopped transmitting on December 5 about 140km off Tasmania’s east coast, which on the time was understood to have poor climate.
The Australian Maritime Security Authority performed large-scale search operations within the Tasman Sea however neither Mr Baggenstos nor the yacht had been discovered.
He was in good well being and thought of a powerful sailor.
The vessel was fitted with security gear together with a life raft, misery beacon and GPS unit.
The investigation has concerned AMSA, interstate, worldwide regulation enforcement businesses and Interpol.
Tasmanian police have now taken over the investigation and maintain grave issues for his welfare.
New Zealand authorities don’t have any document of Mr Baggenstos arriving.
