An underwater search this morning failed to locate John Hammond.  Here is
the update.  John was a competent, well dived-in and safe recreational
diver.

Here is the BBC news update on the two lost divers from,
"http://www.excite.co.uk/news/news_story/news/news7.txt
<http://www.excite.co.uk/news/news_story/news/news7.txt> "

A search for experienced frogman Stephen Norris, 41, from
Bournemouth, who failed to surface after exploring the World
War Two wreck of the Kyarra, off Durlston Head, Dorset,
has been abandoned.

And the second diver, named only as 53-year-old Mr
Hammond, from Gosport, Hants, is thought to have drowned
after going down 31 metres to try to free an anchor.

Darkness brought an end to the air-sea search for Mr
Hammond, who was thought to only have been carrying a
limited oxygen [sic] supply.
