[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As to the search and the resources, I don't think it unusual.  There are lots of reasons other than "giving up" why a search could be called off.  Weather is one of them.  And, the people who operate these helicopter and sonar, etc, also need practice and this is part of their training, as well.  After all, how would they ever be able to find anyone if they didn't utilize the resources.

To the PP who had the friend lost earlier, there could have been many other reasons why it was called off--especially weather conditions.

It is very sad.  I, too, find it odd that someone else didn't sound an alert much earlier.  But, things happen, others may have been napping, etc.  [/quote]

I’m the PP who lost the neighbor in 2018

Weather was not a factor. It was summer. Calm winds, no chop. Search ended at dark, resumed at sunrise the next day, ended at lunch.

No sonar boat, no choppers, just two DNR boats and one Queen Anne county fireboat, plus many neighbors out in our own boats. “Our” searchers outnumbered the govt searches by probably 3-1. The state put almost zero effort into finding him. We looked on our own for two more days after the govt gave up at noon the day after. Weather was perfect the entire time.

His name wasn’t “Kennedy”. That’s all.
