As we told you yesterday a small ship matching the description of Paul and Rachel Chandler yacht. Was spotted about 200 miles from the coast of Africa it appeared to be -- up pirates' skiff. Possibly headed toward Somalia. We are told that the the use naval forces aware of the ship's location they have several ships close by. Our Greg pal -- following this story from London -- any contact with the Chandler's."

" No contact according to the U spokesman we were talking to John but. At the very least we have a pretty good fix on where this quote is we talk on an African Ngo -- very good contacts on the ground in Somalia. And what they told us was then backed up by the EU naval officials. And they say that this small boat this league rival with the Chandler on board is now pretty close to the Somalia's coastline dangerously. In between two major ports for Somalia. Pirate activity the reports of whole bureau in authority here is not anchored were told -- sort of holding off another village now. At the EU and navy tells us that in fact they have several vessels in the area but maybe not right on top of this ship -- they don't say that they made and contact and they don't say. That there yet ready to make a move now our sister network sky news has been in contact -- believe it or not a pirate spokesman and then this person says that. If the international community makes a move on this ship forget about it and Chandler are finished meanwhile John believe it or not the prime minister of what is left of Somalia is right here in London he expresses his concern for the Chandler's any hopes for their speedy and safe return. So the thinking is that they may be the Chandler may be on on the ship just off shore and and potentially be held for ransom or something. -- Could go a couple of ways but it's looking more and more according to the military officials were talking to towards that. Negotiated. Hopeful hopeful finish to this problem. --"
