Search for a businessman in Santa Fe after his boat was found adrift
Authorities are searching for Marcelo Boschi, a businessman from Reconquista, Santa Fe, after his boat was located adrift with no occupants.
Search efforts are currently underway for Marcelo Boschi, a 55-year-old businessman from the city of Reconquista in Santa Fe, Argentina. His boat was found adrift and unoccupied in the Correntoso creek area, prompting a combined water and aerial operation initiated on Tuesday by the Prefectura. Local fishermen reported having seen Boschi prior to the discovery of the deserted vessel.
Boschi departed early in the morning from the Amarras Marina heading to Goya, navigating alone while wearing a life jacket, jeans, and a t-shirt. Witness reports indicate that he was seen shortly after his departure, but hours later, his boat was discovered approximately 10 kilometers upstream from Puerto Reconquista without its owner. His disappearance raises concerns about his well-being and is raising questions about the circumstances of his last known movements.
The ongoing search operation focuses on locating Boschi, who is known to be the head of the company 'De Buena Madera'. Authorities are using both aerial and marine resources in their efforts to track him down, highlighting the urgency of the situation as family and friends await news of his condition. This incident underscores the inherent risks associated with boating activities, particularly in remote areas like Correntoso, where rapid response is vital in emergencies.
