Police have released the name of the man whose body was found in the water in the Wellington suburb of Eastbourne on Monday.
He was missing man Terrence Jameson, who police were appealing for sightings of on Sunday.
"The circumstances of Terrence's death remain unexplained, and as part of our ongoing inquiries police are still seeking information from the public," Detective Senior Sergeant Hamish Blackburn said.
Jameson was last seen on last Friday on a track behind Harcourt Park in Upper Hutt.
Police are asking anyone who may have seen him that day to come forward.
"He had his electric one-wheel scooter with him," Blackburn said. "However, he could have been carrying it, which would give the appearance of him carrying a black box."
Jameson may also have been wearing, or carrying, distinctive red basketball boots.
Anyone with information which could help officers is asked to get in touch via 105 and quote file number 241025/6976.
