Divers have recovered a body at the site where a boat exploded at a marina in western Kentucky.
The Paducah Sun reports the body was recovered Monday afternoon and an autopsy was scheduled Tuesday to determine the person's identity.
State officials have said the boat's owner, 58-year-old Alan Donais of Nashville, Tenn., has been missing since Saturday morning when witnesses heard a loud explosion and saw his boat on fire.
Donais had just refueled the boat at Green Turtle Bay Marina near Grand Rivers, Ky.
A passenger, 54-year-old Jan Crowell of New Johnsonville, Tenn., escaped by jumping from the boat.
Crowell was being treated for burns at Vanderbilt Medical Center.
The blast also caused a towboat to catch fire. Two people on the boat managed to escape without injuries.
