This vast area will be covered with more media than those used in the last few days.

According to Maritime Rescue sources, from early in the morning The Salvamar Alnitak, a Civil Guard patrol boat, the Red Cross launch LS Cronos and the Helimer helicopter are working.

In the afternoon, the operation will be reinforced with the Salvamar Gadir and Hamal, based in Estepona and Vélez-Málaga, respectively.

The only clue found so far Maximiliano Fabián Ludvik and Emmanuel Soria It is the paddle surf board with which they went to sea early on Sunday and a bombilla of mate that they took to drink while enjoying the sunrise.

A sailboat found her on Monday afternoon 15 miles southeast of Malaga, where she was picked up by the Alnitak crew and transferred to the port of the capital.
