Two bodies were found Wednesday
inside the Bayesian, the superyacht that sank off the coast of
Porticiello near Palermo on Monday morning.
Divers have now recovered the bodies. They said they were of two
men.
The bodies are now being slowly carried up to the surface.
After a first pause at 20 metres down - the Bayesian was 56
meters down - the divers are set to bring them up.
They are yet to be identified.
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.
