Grey County OPP are still searching for a boater who did not return from a fishing trip on Tuesday.

Larry Quesnel, 76, was last seen around 7 a.m. on Tuesday when he left his home in Meaford to go fishing on Georgian Bay.

He was expected home at 2 p.m. and was reported overdue shortly after 4:30 p.m.

Police were called after another boater found an empty trolling boat with its down riggers in the water, and pulled it shore at Kingston Beach.

Officers have confirmed the boat belonged to Quesnel.

The Rescue Coordination Centre Trenton was notified and the RCC Hercules and a helicopter were deployed.

The Grey County OPP Marinue Unit, Bruce Peninsula OPP Marine Unit and Owen Sound Fire Department Zodiac are all being used in the search, which is expected to continue on Thursday.

The investigation continues and anyone with information is asked to contact OPP at 1-888-310-1122.
