The body of a 61-year-old Green Bay man was recovered Sunday from the waters of a Door County marina, the sheriff's office said.

Around 10 a.m. Sunday, the man's wife called deputies to say her husband had not returned home after going to his boat at the Wave Pointe Marina on County Highway C in Gardner.

Deputies were told the man may have fallen in the water near his boat.

The Door County Dive Team began searching the waters near his boat around just before 12:30 p.m. Sunday and his body was found shortly after, deputies said.

An autopsy is scheduled for Monday. The man's death is under investigation, but the sheriff's office does not believe there was any foul play.

The man's name will be released later this week.
