'They are all very, very worried about him,' said Lipszyc.
'We are hoping and praying for a miracle. We are hoping if he fell off the boat, that he was able to swim to shore. He is massively special and with God's help and all our prayers, we hope he will be OK.'
A known philanthropist, the Brazilian born millionaire has donated $8 million in the past to Nefesh b'Nefesh, an organisation that helps American and British Jews move to Israel.
Aguiar is also a large supporter of the 'March of the Living' which is an educational program in Poland and Israel designed to continue public awareness of the Holocaust in those countries.
He also became a regular on Israeli sports pages when he invested $4 million into Israeli Premier League soccer team Beitar Jerusalem in July 2009.
In September 2009, Aguiar also purchased Jerusalem's leading basetball franchise Hapoel Jerusalem for $1.5 million.

Despite his family and business interests, Aguiar has a history of mental illness and was admitted to an Israeli psychiatric hostpital after claiming to know a soldier in Israel who had been abducted by the terrorist group Hamas.
And court documents indicate that in 2011, Aguiar's wife Jaime and his mother, successfully petitioned a Miami-Dade judge to appoint an emergency guardian for him.
In addition, Aguiar and his uncle, Thomas Kaplan have been locked in litigation over the $2.55 billion sale of an energy company they co-founded called Leor Exploration and Production LLC which was involved in gas extraction in Texas.
