TROY, Texas (KXXV) — Search and recovery teams have located the vessel that carried the four members of Maynard family from Troy that went missing in August 2024.

Support Vessels of Alaska, Vision Subsea, and Benthic Geoscience Inc. contacted Alaska Wildlife Troopers and offered their help to locate the boat and family.

In early May, they found the vessel and identified it in Kachemak Bay.

Volunteer divers from Alaska Dive Search, Rescue, and Recovery Team recovered three sets of remains from the sunken boat, which have been sent to the state medical examiner’s office. Next of kin has been notified.

Back in August of 2024, 42-year-old David Maynard, 37-year-old Mary Maynard, 11-year-old Colton Maynard and 8-year-old Brantley Maynard were reported missing.
