Media reported the experienced spearfisherman, and father of three, failed to surface after spearing a kingfish on Hunter’s Bank, off the Kapiti Coast, on Saturday.

They said Mr De Vries was one of the “last true gentleman, hugely talented and passionate about his work, his family and his diving.”
The pair offered their condolences to Mr De Vries’ family, friends, the team in the Wellington office and those who knew him in the Auckland office.
