Jay Slater 'may have boarded yacht' and be 'alive' after disappearance in Tenerife
dailyrecord.co.ukA fresh theory has emerged suggesting that missing 19 year old Jay Slater may have boarded a yacht in Tenerife. The Lancashire teen disappeared on the Spanish island on the morning of June 17, and the search for him is now entering its fourth week.Jay is believed to have attended a rave at Papagayo nightclub in Playa de las Americas the night before he went missing with friends.
He left the club with two British men, one named Ayub Qassim, 31, known as 'Johnny Vegas', and another unnamed man, heading to their Airbnb rental near the remote village of Masca on the north of the island.Jay was last seen leaving the Airbnb on the Monday morning.
Around 8.30am on the day of his disappearance, Jay called Lucy to say he was lost and trying to get home with no water and only 1 per cent battery left on his phone.Most of the search efforts have been concentrated in an area in the Rural de Teno Park where his phone last pinged.
