Two fishermen were missing, presumed drowned, after their trawler Heritage was discovered on the bed of the North Sea yesterday. They were named as Tony Mapplebreck, in his thirties and married with three children, from Bridlington, and Shaun Rowley, 21, single and from Scarborough.

Two other fishermen vanished after their 18ft boat capsized in a moderate surf yards from the Lincolnshire coast. Rescue teams were last night scouring six miles of shoreline from Ingoldmells Point to Gibraltar Point.
