The search for a missing boater on Lake Champlain is continuing.

Police say divers on Monday were searching the waters near Malletts Bay.

Crews searched the area for 65-year-old Brian Webb on Sunday, but found no sign of him.

Police say Webb's dinghy was found Monday morning near Marble Island.

Webb's wife contacted the Coast Guard on Sunday morning when her husband failed to show up at church.

He had reportedly spent the night aboard his 34-foot sailboat, which was anchored and found unoccupied in Malletts Bay.
