Essex Police searching for missing Luton man Edward Gillespie have recovered a body from Roydon Marina.
A member of the public on a boat spotted the body in the water and alerted officers just before 10.40am on Saturday (January 26).
Essex Police marine units took the body to a nearby hospital.
Detective Chief Inspector Stuart Hooper said: "The body has not been formally identified at this time but we have suspended our search for Ed and his family have been informed of this discovery."
He added that the coroner had been informed of the discovery and police would now be working with her to confirm the identity of the deceased.
