No name released yet, however Ten News say pilot was a 64yo English immigrant flying an RA reg aircraft that he had bought within the last few weeks. Trying to work out what it was from the wreck photo, water is unforgiving and the aircraft has been reduced to pretty much kit form. RIP, not the way you expect a jolly out to the island on a sunny day to end.

Edit; I believe it is one of Howie Hughes machines (Ballina)
