No one has come forward to claim a small sailboat that found earlier this week abandoned and adrift off Nova Scotia's eastern shore. RCMP say they have closed the investigation into the so-called ghost boat. On Wednesday, the coast guard received a call that a red and white sailboat was adrift in the ocean. The unmanned craft was found drifting near Port Bickerton. An RCMP spokesman says investigators believe the unmarked boat was likely tied up at a local wharf when its rope broke and it drifted away.
