Chinese sailor Guo Chuan went missing after being thrown into the water by high winds during his trans-Pacific voyage, Guo's support team said on Thursday.
He was suspected to have fallen into the ocean between 3:15 pm and 3:30 pm on Wednesday, Beijing time, they said.
The US Coast Guard said it has suspended its search for Guo after a rescue team did not find him aboard his boat off Hawaii.
