DUBLIN — Waterford pathologists used dental records to confirm that a body retrieved from the Celtic Sea off the southeast was the missing French yachting legend Eric Tarbarly, who fell overboard in a boating accident off Milford Haven in Wales six weeks ago.

Tabarly’s body was trawled up in the net of a French trawler, Anyvidig, and landed at Dunmore East, Co. Waterford.
