Mr. Lynch is the latest to go missing after the yacht sank earlier this week.
Of the 22 passengers and crew on board, 15 people survived, including a one-year-old child and Lynch’s mother, Angela Bacares.
Morgan Stanley International chairman Jonathan Bloomer, his wife Judy Bloomer, Clifford Chance lawyer Chris Morvillo, his wife Neda Morvillo, and Recaldo Thomas, the ship’s cook, died when the Bayesian sank.
The wreck of the ship Bayesian lies on the seabed at a depth of 50 meters. The operation, which has been underway since Monday, has been described by rescuers as “difficult”, with divers only able to work underwater in 12-minute shifts.
A decision on whether to raise the sunken yacht from the seabed is “not on the agenda” but will be made in the future, a spokesman for Italy’s coast guard said.
According to divers from the search and rescue team, the vessel was “virtually intact” on the seabed.
Her father, tech mogul Mike Lynch, was found dead on Thursday, while his wife, Angela Bacares, survived.
A decision on whether to raise the sunken yacht from the seabed is “not on the agenda” but will be made in the future, Vincenzo Zagarola, a spokesman for Italy’s coast guard, said as quoted by Sky News.
The wreckage of the ship Bayesian lies on the seabed at a depth of 50 meters. It was moored about half a mile off the coast of Porticle when it capsized at around 5am on Monday. sunk at local time in the morning. V. Zagarola said that the Italian Coast Guard still maintains the assumption that the missing girl is on board.
Investigators are gathering evidence for a possible criminal investigation
Investigators from the local prosecutor’s office are gathering evidence for a possible criminal investigation into the sinking of the yacht, Sky News correspondent Ashna Hurynag reported.
British researchers said it was too early to comment on their investigation.
A. Hurynag added that the “accusation game” has already begun, and the head of the company that owns the company that built the ship “puts part of the blame on the ship’s crew and captain.”
In an interview with Sky News, The Italian Sea Group CEO Giovanni Costantino spoke of human error and blamed the crew for not being alert.
Meanwhile, the search for H. Lynch continues.
“Divers are starting to prepare and those search and rescue teams have been on site for about half an hour,” Sky News reports. “There has been an outpouring of thanks for the six people who have been confirmed dead in this tragic incident.”
Prosecutors in the Sicilian town of Termini Imerese, near where the superyacht Bayesian sank, plan to hold a press conference tomorrow morning.
The expert indicated four possible reasons for the yacht crash
The captain and an expert in sea chartering identified four possible problems that could have led to the yacht’s disaster.
Captain Ed Geary said the retractable keels – a stabilizing fin on the bottom of the yacht – have “historical failure issues”.
“Whether the keel was raised or lowered, it had a significant impact on the stability of the ship,” he is convinced.
Second, it targeted UK Maritime and Coastguard Agency regulations.
“MCA entrusts the inspection, certification and inspection of these commercial vessels – up to 12 passengers – to for-profit surveying societies and certification societies. Unfortunately, the quality is not as high as it should be,” he said, adding that some of their staff are “untrained, unskilled and inexperienced.”
Captain E. Geary also disagreed with the comments of G. Costantino, the general director of the Italian Maritime Group.
“The shipbuilder originally said the ship was unsinkable, which is kind of hard to fathom considering the ship sits 50m below the water’s surface off the coast of Italy.”
However, the captain agreed with G. Costantino’s statements that the crew should have been alert.
The Coast Guard hopes to make progress on Friday
Italy’s coast guard hopes to make progress in the search for Lynch today.
Asked if any changes were expected, spokesman Vincenzo Zagarola said: “We hope so.”
Mr Lynch is the last unaccounted for person on board the yacht after six bodies were found after the Bayesian sank on Monday.
However, the search for H. Lych, the daughter of British tycoon Mike Lynch, was neither easy nor quick, said V. Zaragola, a representative of the Italian Coast Guard. He compared a sunken superyacht to “an 18-story building full of water.”
“From the first moment, it was neither easy nor quick to inspect the ship,” V. Zaragola told the PA news agency. “Think about an 18-story building full of water,” he added.
