Friends and family of Trevor Moore have called off their searches for the missing U.S. Olympic sailor, The AP reports.

According to WCVB, Moore was born in Scituate, but moved to Naples, Florida with his family when he was 7. He competed in the 2012 Summer Olympics in London.

Moore was last seen leaving the U.S. Sailing Center in Miami in a 15-foot inflatable powerboat. The boat was later found with Moore’s belongings in it.

The U.S. Coast Guard suspended its search for Moore last Saturday night, but friends and family pressed on until Thursday afternoon.
