The skipper's wife, Rosa Cilano, gave the alarm. The two were returning from Martinique with destination Spezia (Northern Italy) aboard a sailboat of 14 meters, Bright.
Apparently the boat got into trouble in the stretch of sea between the Azores and Gibraltar.
The wreck has already been found with jackets, boxes and fuel tanks, but none of the crew.
"I ask that the authorities continue to engage in the research of my husband and Antonio". It is the appeal of his wife. "I cannot understand what happened, the last contact had happened at 0.16 on May Day. The weather was good, with a wave of one to two meters and a wind of 15-20 knots across. They are experienced sailors, look for them with great use of strength, "says the mother of a 4-year-old girl.
