They are focusing the search for the third windsurfer Armando, 28, in the Islamorada area.

"Following Negrin's arrival, the Coast Guard launched its search for the two others. Thursday, a boater found a man Negrin identified as Dwarta, 23, floating on a windsurfing board off Big Pine Key. Dwarta was suffering from exposure when picked up.

His location has the Coast Guard now focusing on Islamorada as the likely location for the third man based on tides and currents. Negrin identified that man as Amando, 28.

"If he's still on that board, then his chance of surviving increases significantly," said Coast Guard Ensign Peter Bermont.

He said that since Tuesday, the overall search with boats and planes had 20 specific searches covering more than 8,000 nautical miles."
