A body has been found on a North Ayrshire beach in the search for a missing ferry passenger who fell overboard.
HM Coastguard responded to a report of a man going overboard from the MV Caledonian Isles, near Arran, on Sunday 18 October around 8.30pm.
The man was later named as 82-year-old Jim Wither, who had been reported missing from Johnstone, Renfrewshire.
Two helicopters, a coastguard aircraft, Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) lifeboats and rescue teams from the surrounding area were sent to find the passenger.
