excerpt:

The body was discovered Friday afternoon on Lunging Island at the Isles 
of Shoals and recovered by the state Marine Patrol, with help from the 
U.S. Coast Guard.

Wood, 59, of Hopkinton had been missing since Feb. 28 when the 
experienced kayaker made a solo trip to the Isles of Shoals but failed 
to return to his vehicle at Odiorne State Park in Rye.

A Coast Guard crew spoke to him during the afternoon while he was on his 
way to Smuttynose Island after someone reported a kayaker in trouble. 
Wood planned to have lunch on the island before returning to Rye.
