Shoreline searches continue today for the missing crewmen from Rescue Helicopter 116

Yesterday saw the largest sea search in the history of the state as over 100 boats joined Naval services, the RNLI and the Coastguard

The RNLI says they're grateful to the civilians who joined rescue teams for yesterday's sea search. 

There's still no trace of Ciarán Smith and Paul Ormsby, despite that massive effort off the coast from Mayo up to Donegal.

Garreth Morrison of the RNLI says a huge area has been covered and shore searches will continue today.
