The sixth and last missing body from the yacht of British tycoon Mike Lynch that capsized on Monday was recovered, local media reported on Friday.

The body, recovered by divers this morning, belonged to the tycoon’s 18-year-old daughter Hanna Lynch, the state-run ANSA news agency announced.

The 56-meter (184-foot) British-flagged superyacht Bayesian capsized on Monday morning due to heavy rains and stormy weather about 20 kilometers (12.4 miles) east of Palermo, southern Italy. While 15 people were rescued, six others went missing.

Among the deceased was Recaldo Thomas, the yacht’s chef, whose body was found just hours after the vessel sank. On Wednesday, local media reported that two more bodies were recovered, although their identities have yet to be confirmed.

On Thursday, 59-year-old Mike Lynch’s body was also recovered.
