The body of Daniel McLellan-Skeggs, who went missing after a horrific jet boat crash last month, has been found washed up on a West Coast beach this morning.
Police said the body was found by a fisherman this morning on a beach at Kakapotahi, near the Waitaha River.
McLellan-Skeggs has been missing since he was involved in a jet boat crash on the Taramakau River, northeast of Ross, on May 17.
A local helicopter crew rescued one of the men involved in the crash but McLellan-Skeggs could not be found.
Police recovered the body early this afternoon and confirmed it to be that of the 29-year-old from Christchurch.
