Fisherman found dead in his boat off Paphos

[memory man]

A 52-year-old fisherman was found dead in his boat on Saturday two nautical miles off the Kato Paphos harbour.

The man was located by marine police who launched a search operation in the afternoon after being alerted by the family that he had been missing since morning and was not answering their calls. The 52-year-old left his house in the morning to go fishing in his boat.

He was found unconscious in his boat some two nautical miles south-east of the harbour. His boat was towed to shore and he was taken to Paphos general hospital where he was pronounced dead.

Police ruled out foul play. A post mortem is to be carried out in the coming days is to shed light on the cause of death.

That's bad that it happened when he was most likely alone.
On the other hand, it sounds like he passed away doing something he probably enjoyed and - they found him in good time.
Thoughts go out to the family and friends he left behind...
