NSW: Body found after man dies in boating accident

The body of a 30-year-old man thrown overboard in a boating accident has been found
at a popular holiday and camping spot north of Newcastle.

Police say members of the public found the Medowie man in Myall Lakes shortly before
10am (AEDT) following a search sparked by the accident near Tamboy last night.

The man was one of four in a five-metre aluminium boat that struck a marker 10pm (AEDT)
last night.

Two men were thrown overboard but a search by those still in the boat and a nearby
vessel only located one of the missing men.

The man has been identified but his his name is being withheld until his family is notified.
