Two bodies were reportedly found
Wednesday inside the Bayesian, the superyacht that sank off the
coast of Porticiello near Palermo on Monday morning.
According to reports, the bodies have not yet been recovered.
British tech tycoon Mike Lynch and Morgan Stanley International
Chairman Jonathan Bloomer are among six missing passengers.
The other missing passengers are Bloomer's wife Anne Elizabeth
Judith Bloomer, Lynch's 18-year-old daughter Hannah, Lynch's
lawyer Chris Morvillo and his wife Nada Morvillo.
The Bayesian, with 22 people on board, sank after a tornado hit
the area.
Coast guards rescued 15 passengers but seven others were
reported missing, including one person whose body was recovered
later on Monday morning after firefighter divers reached the
boat located at a depth of some 50 metres, half a mile from the
coast. The victim was later identified as Ricardo Thomas, who
worked on board as chef.
