A Bermuda man, George Lambert, believed lost at sea,  turned up safe on the Rocks at Sandy Ground Anguilla over the weekend, about 3 weeks since reportedly a merchant ship last saw his 26ft yacht, Endurance II.

Mr. Lambert had been en route from Bermuda to St. Vincent & The Grenadines to see his wife, Brenda Adams, but had not turned up, causing his family to report him missing.

An extensive search had been conducted for him in an area spanning Puerto Rico in the South to New York in the North by officials from Bermuda Maritime Operations, the US Coast Guard and Coast Guard services in the Region without success. The search was abandoned last week after two US Air Force , C-130 Hercules aircraft  failed to turn up any evidence of the missing man or his vessel.

On Saturday May 23, 2009, Mr. Lambert turned up on the North West Coast of Anguilla.

He had reportedly suffered engine failure at sea, but had managed to reach the island under sail.
