A diver has died during early recovery operations for British tech tycoon Mike Lynch’s sunken superyacht off the coast of northern Sicily, Italian police confirmed Friday.
The diver, a 39-year-old Dutch national employed by a specialist salvage company, was working underwater in Porticello when the accident occurred. Authorities say the exact cause of death remains unknown.
The recovery effort follows the sinking of the Bayesian yacht in August last year during severe weather near the port of Porticello, close to Palermo. Seven of the 22 people on board were killed, including Mike Lynch, 59, and his 18-year-old daughter Hannah.
Fifteen others, including a one-year-old and Lynch’s wife Angela Bacares, survived by escaping in a lifeboat.
The cause of the sinking is still under investigation. Naval experts have questioned how a yacht of the Bayesian's size and build could have succumbed so quickly to the storm.
No pollution has been reported from the wreck, and efforts are ongoing to secure its tank vents and openings.
