| Please keep an eye open this weekend for anything suspicious floating in the water. The missing boater from Sunday night (Troy Palmer) was a good friend of mine and he has not been located yet. He was 5'8", about 160 pounds and was wearing yellow. The police say it will take roughly 5-10 days for him to float up assuming he didn't make it to shore (which is the assumption now unfortunately). With the lack of wind this week and into the weekend it's likely he is still in the area somewhere.
Contact:
Sturgeon Bay Coast Guard @ (920) 743-3366 Emergency/SAR line
or
Door County Sheriff @ (920)746-2400
Thanks, and best of luck fishing. |

Location: Manitowoc, WI | For the sake of his family, I hope myself or someone else finds him. I'm sure all the guys in the tournament along with myself will keep a watchful eye out in the next few days. Thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends. |

| Just a note to add, they were in the Chambers island area and traveling back to Fish Creek. |

Location: Manitowoc, WI | He was also reportedly wearing yellow. Either jacket or shirt. This individual fell overboard earlier this week and could not be found. |
