The body of a white man was recovered from the sea at Holyhead - with a rucksack still on his back. He had short black hair, was of a large build, and stood between 6 foot (183cm) and 6'2" (188cm) tall.
He was wearing red socks, blue jeans with a brown leather woven belt, a blue and yellow tartan shirt, a grey sweater with navy check from C&A, a blue crew neck lambswool jumper (marked 'Canada'), a blue body warmer from Berghaus, and a blue kagoul marked 'Santa Fe'. On his feet he wore calf length brown boots. His possessions included the rucksack and Pondersa Camp trail badges.
The Manchester Evening News for June 1st 1982 briefly mentioned the discovery:
Body riddle. Police are mystified by the identity of a young man whose body was found in the sea near Holyhead. There was a rucksack near and it is believed he could have have been a climber or walker.
