“We’ve done land-based searches and water-based searches and at this stage we’re probably in a space where we’re looking to recover the body,” Acting Superintendent Peter Morrissey from the Mandurah District Office said.
A 47-year-old man, who was believed to be driving the boat, is in a stable condition at Royal Perth Hospital with serious injuries, while the fourth person onboard, a 54-year-old man, was uninjured.
Water police vessels and divers remain on the scene, searching for the missing woman.

Acting Superintendent Morrissey said police are looking into what caused the 5.5 metre boat to hit the marker.
“The speed and all the circumstances surrounding the crash will be at the forefront of the investigation,” he said.
“It is way too early at this stage to determine any sort of criminality or any sort of responsibility for this.”
Vince and Wendy McCormack have told the ABC they witnessed the crash and called police.
“We heard a boat coming from the bridge down this way … speeding very quickly, and then all of a sudden we heard a bang,” Ms McCormack said.
“It didn’t have any lights on the boat and it went straight into the marker in the water and then there was silence, there was nothing.
“It’s something we hear often at night, that the boats go up so fast without any lights on and it’s a tragedy waiting to happen.”
