- On August 22, dive and recovery teams searched off Porticello harbor for the last missing person, three days after the British-flagged luxury yacht Bayesian sank during a violent storm along Sicily's coast.
- Italian authorities confirmed that tech mogul Mike Lynch was among the five bodies recovered. His identification was announced on Thursday. The search operation involved 27 divers and robotic crafts, while one person, believed to be Lynch's 18-year-old daughter Hannah, remains missing.
- The yacht Bayesian had 22 passengers and crew on board when it sank. Eyewitnesses reported a waterspout that caught the vessel. Initially, six people were unaccounted for, including Lynch and his daughter, as well as Morgan Stanley International Chairman Jonathan Bloomer and his wife Judy.
- Mike Lynch, 59, was the founder of Autonomy, a software firm purchased by Hewlett-Packard for $11 billion in 2011. Following a lengthy trial that ended in June with his acquittal, the sailing trip along Sicily's coast was seen as a celebration of his legal victory.
