An American woman who disappeared from a dinghy in the Bahamas had told a friend she feared being with her husband at sea, according to newly revealed text messages.

Lynette Hooker, 55, from Michigan, went missing on the night of April 4 after she and her husband Brian Hooker, 58, departed Hope Town on the Abaco Islands for Elbow Cay in an 8-foot dinghy, heading back to their yacht, the Soulmate.

Brian told authorities that Lynette fell overboard in strong winds and currents around 7:30 p.m., and that she had inadvertently taken the motor’s kill-switch cord over the side with her, cutting the motor.

He was left to paddle approximately four miles to Marsh Harbour Boat Yards, arriving at around 4 a.m. Sunday, when he reported his wife missing.
