Daily Express – Tycoon and daughter missing in yacht tragedy
Space on the Daily Express’s front page is given entirely to the yacht tragedy. The paper has a large and dramatic image of the yacht, with an inset picture of Lynch and his wife Angela who survived the sinking. The paper says: The captain of the Sir Robert, one of the first ships to intervene to rescue the passengers, said the Bayesian “tilted to one side and within minutes the boat sank, it all happened in a very short time.”
Elsewhere, a report on Taylor Swift meeting victims of the Southport stabbing is featured at the top of the paper.
Mike Lynch missing: Tech entrepreneur vanishes after Bayesian yacht capsizes in Sicily
British businessman Mike Lynch is missing after the yacht he was on capsized in Sicily leaving at least one person dead.
Angela Bacares, Mr Lynch’s wife, was among those rescued after the incident.
Mr Lynch is the co-founder of software company Autonomy Corporation and the founder of Invoke Capital. A spokesperson for Mr Lynch said there was no comment.
The body of one missing passenger was recovered close to the wreck at a depth of 164 ft a few hours into the search mission.
Before the recovery of the victim, believed to be a man, the Italian coast guard said: “There are currently seven missing, one crew member and six passengers, of British, American and Canadian nationality.”
The captain of the Sir Robert, one of the first ships to intervene to rescue the passengers, said the Bayesian “tilted to one side and within minutes the boat sank, it all happened in a very short time.”

Editorial 20 August 2024.
As more details pour out regarding the luxury boat sinking off the coast of Sicily, the story has started to dominate the headlines around the world. In the UK, Tuesday’s front pages are dominated by yesterday’s news that the British tech tycoon Mike Lynch and his daughter are among the six people still missing.
There’s not much coverage of the story on the international front pages, but online – since the news of other prominent figures from banking and tech from around the world are among the missing – the story is becoming more international.
Away from the yacht sinking, a few UK papers feature showbiz and royal stories on the sidebar. A few of the papers lead on other domestic topics – mostly politics.
Last night’s Premier League draw between Leicester City and Spurs dominates the back pages.
