On July 13, 2026, a trimaran capsized in the Bay of Biscay, leaving three Danish crew members missing. The vessel, identified as the 'Flying Fish', was reported overdue, prompting a search operation coordinated by the French Maritime Prefecture of the Atlantic.
Search teams have located the overturned trimaran but have not found the liferaft or any sign of the three Danish nationals. The search area covers a wide expanse of the bay, known for challenging weather conditions. French and Spanish authorities are involved, deploying aircraft and vessels.
As of July 14, 2026, the search continues. No distress signals have been received from the crew. The families have been notified. The cause of the capsize is under investigation, but initial reports suggest possible rough seas.
