Superyacht Wreck Divers Find Four Bodies, Search Continues for Two More

Divers searching the wreckage of a superyacht that sank off Sicily have recovered the bodies of four passengers while search operations continue for another two passengers.

Divers searching the wreck of a superyacht that sank off Sicily have found four bodies as the search for missing passengers persisted and questions intensified about what caused the vessel to sink during a ferocious storm.

The Italian Coast Guard confirmed the discovery of the bodies on Wednesday, a day after the yacht, named “Bayesian,” sank in rough seas off the coast of Porticello, Sicily.

The yacht was carrying a total of nine people, including the owner, British tech tycoon Mike Lynch, his wife, and seven crew members.

Three of the crew members were rescued shortly after the yacht sank, while Lynch and his wife were airlifted to safety on Tuesday.

The search for the remaining two missing passengers is ongoing, with the Italian Coast Guard, Navy, and Air Force all involved in the operation.

The search has been hampered by strong winds and rough seas, but the authorities are hopeful that the remaining passengers can be found alive.

The cause of the sinking is still under investigation, but CCTV footage captured the moment that the yacht was battered by the storm.

The footage shows the yacht being tossed around by the waves, with water crashing over the deck.

The yacht eventually capsized and sank within minutes.

The sinking has raised questions about the safety of superyachts in extreme weather conditions.

Superyachts are increasingly popular among the wealthy, but they can be vulnerable to capsizing in rough seas.

Experts say that superyacht owners need to be aware of the risks and take precautions to ensure the safety of their passengers.
