    Sailboat missing off North Carolina

    Guys,

    My children's principle has a daughter on a the sail vessel "The Flying Colours" which was traveling from North Carolina to Newport RI. An emergency signal was sent Monday. Rescue vessels were dispatched from Portsmouth.

    The children recieved a note from the Superintendent of Schools that was vague at best. I certainly do not want to disturb the family. But I would like to gather as much information as is publically available.

    Where is the best place to find any public information on this Search and Rescue Op?

    Please keep the family in your prayers.

    Mike
