PORTICELLO, Italy –
The body of British tech magnate Mike Lynch was recovered on Thursday from the wreck of his family yacht, which sank off the coast of Sicily this week during a heavy storm, a senior Italian official said.
Lynch’s 18-year-old daughter, Hannah, is still missing, Interior Ministry official Massimo Mariani told Reuters after being notified by emergency services.
The British-flagged Bayesian yacht, a 56-metre superyacht carrying 22 passengers and crew, was anchored off the port of Porticello, near Palermo, but disappeared beneath the waves within minutes after bad weather broke out on Monday morning.
