Nova Scotia RCMP have not yet located the five fishermen and scallop dragger that went missing off the south shore two weeks ago.
In a Thursday update, the agency said it searched the coastline from Digby Gut to Harbourville with a helicopter the day prior. Nothing was located, it said in a release.
Aerial search was suspended on Thursday due to weather conditions.
The Chief William Saulis fishing vessel was carrying six men when it sank early in the morning on Dec. 15.
