CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — A 62-year-old boater who had been missing since Friday was found Sunday clinging to his capsized vessel off of Florida’s Atlantic coastline, the U.S. Coast Guard said,

The agency had been searching for signs of Stuart Bee and his 32-foot (9.7 meters) boat since he was reported missing on Friday.

A crew onboard the container ship Angeles spotted Bee some 86 miles (138 kilometers) off of Cape Canaveral on Sunday, the Coast Guard said in a Twitter post.

Coast Guard crews were headed to the Angeles to take Bee back to shore, the agency said.

His condition wasn’t immediately known.
