By Troy MeridaACAPULCO, Mexico (Reuters) - Families of Mexican sailors missing since Hurricane Otis last month devastated the seaside resort of Acapulco are pleading for more help in the search for loved ones, frustrated by a lack of progress and government assistance. In Acapulco, many sailors jumped on their moored boats to sail them to what they believed were safer parts of the bay as storms move in. Susana Ramos Villa, 32, said people who cannot afford to go out to sea to search for relatives need government assistance. Alejandro Alexander González, an Acapulco Port official, said between 30-40 people are looking for missing sailors. "Before we begin to remove the larger vessels, the yachts, we're doing an intense search to locate bodies," he said.
