Long Beach body may be from missing sailboat

SOUTH BEND, Wash. (AP) — The Pacific County sheriff's office says a body washed ashore on the Long Beach Peninsula near Ocean Park.

Grays Harbor Undersheriff Rick Scott told KXRO the body found Monday morning may be from the missing sailboat "Connie B".

The 25-foot Coronado sailboat and its owner John Phillip Stapp of Seattle disappeared in mid-October and may have had an accident off the southwest coast of Washington.

The body of a passenger, Teri Dascher of Kingston, washed ashore Oct. 23 near Grayland.
