BBC News Published image captionThe Nicola Faith fishing boat went missing on 27 January The wreck of a north Wales boat missing for more than two months was found just 177m away from its last known position, a marine search expert has said. The Nicola Faith failed to return to Conwy on 27 January, and the bodies of her three crew were later found at sea. David Mearns said there was "no reason" why the boat should not have been found sooner given its location. The bodies of crew members Alan Minard, 20, Ross Ballantine, 39, and skipper Carl McGrath, 34, were all found in March.

INVESTIGATORS and police divers are set to identify a wreck found off the North Wales coast as the missing vessel 'Nicola Faith', an expert has said.
