A search for a 19-year old Scottish man, who has been missing for over a week, resumed today off the coast of west Cork.

The teenager, who was on a weekend break with friends, was overcome by a wave and swept out to sea in Baltimore last Saturday morning.

The Shannon-based Coastguard helicopter, the Baltimore Lifeboat and local coastguard units have been taking part in the search for the past eight days.
