Danielle Wright

Danielle's parent, Ricky and Robin Wright went to Port Macquarie, Austalia about six weeks ago to continue their search for the Nina.

The mother of Danielle Wright, who is lost at sea with 6 other crew members of the Nina, sent an email today to update everyone on the status of the search....

Updated 10/14/13, 10:33 pm:  A news story out of New Zealand reports that "officials" don't think that the satellite images of what could be the Nina are enough to "justify" an official search.

Tonight, Tuesday, August 27th from 6-9 p.m. at both locations of Deano's Pizza in Lafayette, fifteen percent of proceeds that both restaurants make will be given to the search effort.

Ricky Wright, father of missing UL student Danielle Wright, is asking you to call the Secretary of State's office and leave a message, encouraging him to send resources to help in the search for the Nina and her crew..

According to their Facebook page, the organization is looking for people to volunteer their time and talents to help find UL student Danielle Wright and the rest of the crew of the Nina.

The parents of missing UL student Danielle Wright will hold a press conference at 2pm on Thursday, August 15, at Home Bank on Kaliste Saloom in Lafayette.

The effort to find Lafayette student, Danielle Wright, who is missing at sea, has just gotten some help from one of Acadiana’s biggest stars, Hunter Hayes.

"We DO NOT believe that Nina sank. We have proof that she made it through the first two storms."

It's been almost two months since communication was lost to the schooner, Nina, on which a young Lafayette woman was a crewman.
