Dr Clare Bailey says her husband ‘almost made it’ after his body was found close to a coastal resort
in SymiDr Clare Bailey said she and the couple’s four children took comfort in the fact that he “had almost made it”, after his body was found close to a coastal resort on Sunday.
She added that Mosley – who repeatedly tested scientific theories on his own body – was an adventurous man, which was “part of what made him so special”. His body was discovered on rocky terrain close to a fence, next to a small resort that is accessible only by boat or by foot. The resort is on the opposite side of the bay from where he had left his wife and friends and around 30 minutes’ walk from Pedi, where he was last seen.
A news camera crew said they had spotted the body from a boat in the bay of Ayia Marina, having zoomed in on an image they had captured. It was announced that a postmortem will be conducted at Rhodes’ general hospital on Monday. Mosley’s body was transferred to the bigger island within hours of its discovery.
Five firefighters left the island by boat with the body on a stretcher at around 2.45pm local time. On Saturday, an emergency helicopter spent hours flying across the mountainous search site on Symi between Pedi bay and Ayia Marina. Mosley set off hiking from St Nikolas beach at 1.30pm local time on Wednesday, bound for the port town of Symi, where he was staying in a house with friends, a walk of a little over 2 miles.
