SEARCH teams are continuing to scour the Mediterranean after four British tourists were feared dead after a £14million superyacht was hit by a tornado before sinking off the coast of Sicily.
The lifeless body of one victim who was sailing onboard the doomed Bayesian yacht has already been pulled from the Mediterranean.
British technology tycoon Mike Lynch is believed to be among those missing, sources said.
A body, believed to be that of the vessel’s chef, has been found and 15 people were rescued, according to local media.
The superyacht, named Bayesian, capsized at about 5am off Palermo and was flying a British flag, according to ship-tracking site Marine Traffic.
A spokesperson for Mr Lynch told the PA news agency there was no comment.
