Search continues for Missing Boater on Lake Hartwell

Despite the cold winter weather, the search continues for a boater, who went missing on Lake Hartwell. Oconee County Emergency Services Director Chief Scott Krein gives an update on the search for 64-year-old Brady Hamby. “We have had boats out everyday from DNR. This afternoon we hope to do a little more sonaring and then tomorrow before the storm, just to work on that and just to continue the search when the weather permits.” Hamby went missing on Feb. 11 while kayaking on Lake Hartwell. His lime green kayak washed ashore on the Georgia side of the lake just east of the I-85 Bridge. Chief Krein says efforts are being hindered by extremely cold weather and limited visibility.
