In Lynette Hooker probe, Coast Guard seeks information about mystery sailboat
Investigators say the sailboat’s owner or occupants may have seen Lynette Hooker before she vanished, and tips can be submitted anonymously.
- On Tuesday, the Coast Guard Investigative Service requested public assistance identifying the owner of a sailboat moored near the Soulmate in Aunt Pat's Bay, Bahamas, on April 4, the night Lynette Hooker disappeared.
- Hooker, a 55-year-old from Michigan, vanished on April 4 while sailing with her husband, Brian Hooker, who reported she fell overboard from an 8-foot dinghy during a nighttime ride in the Abacos.
- Authorities arrested Brian as a person of interest on April 8 before releasing him without charges five days later. The Coast Guard Investigative Service continues searching, with no charges filed in the case.
- Following his release, Brian's attorney issued a statement confirming his focus on the search. "He is dedicating his full emotional and physical energy toward coordinating with relevant parties to find her," the statement read.
- Federal investigators are now examining areas beyond the initial dinghy route to gather new leads. The public can submit anonymous tips through the CGIS Tips application, available on the Apple App Store and Google Play.
