Police have confirmed a body washed up on a Sussex beach is that of Andy Funnell, one of Britain's brightest young windsurfing prospects.
Sussex Police confirmed his identity yesterday, six days after his body was washed up on the shore at Bulverhythe, near Bexhill. An inquest will be held.
Mr Funnell, 21, went missing on June 15 while on a jet-ski off the coast of his home town, Seaford. A search by coastguards, lifeboats and Sussex Police proved fruitless.
Tributes to Mr Funnell came from around the world.
