The search for a missing fisherman was called off on Monday after no trace of him was found.
The man, who has not been named, is believed to have fallen overboard from the fishing vessel Onward Star off the Bridlington coast at 6.10pm on Sunday.
The crew of the ship reported that the man had disappeared as they entered Bridlington harbour.
Humberside Coastguard launched five rescue teams and off-duty operations room staff conducted a shoreline search.
RAF and police helicopters also joined the search, while six local fishing vessels patrolled the sea and assisted the lifeboats.
Watch officer Richard Stewart, of Humberside Coastguard, said two inshore lifeboats and two rescue coastguard teams restarted the search at dawn on Monday.
A spokeswoman for Humberside Coastguard said it was a "matter of waiting" until his body was recovered from the sea.
Anyone with any information should call Humberside Coastguard on (01262) 672317.
