PREVIOUSLY POSTED: Nanaimo RCMP are hoping that public tips will help them locate two sailors who haven't been seen in nearly a month.
30-year-old Robert Stalker and a 33-year-old woman were believed to be travelling aboard a sailboat christened Calliope and the couple was last heard from July 20. The man's family reported him missing to the Nanaimo RCMP on Aug. 13.
