A FUNDRAISER has been launched to thank the RNLI amidst a huge search for a missing fishing boat off the coast of North Wales. Lauren Hynes, sister of skipper Carl McGrath, one of three missing crew members, said volunteer rescuers have been “absolutely fantastic” as efforts continue on land, sea and air to trace the lost vessel. Ms Hynes said contact was lost with the Nicola Faith at 9.30pm on Wednesday before it failed to arrive as expected at Rhos-on-Sea harbour at 11pm. "I am staying hopeful and all I want is my big brother back with me," she said.
