A luxury superyacht capsized off the coast of Sicily after a tornado hit the area early Monday, killing one passenger and leaving six others missing — including a tech tycoon known as “Britain’s Bill Gates,” officials said.

 

The Bayesian — a 184-foot luxury sailboat with 22 people aboard — sank off the port of Porticello when it was hit by a violent storm at sunrise, the Italian coast guard said.

 

The boat was found 160 feet beneath the water’s surface, and the coast guard deployed divers to search the submerged vessel for survivors.

 

One body, believed to belong to the ship’s chef, was found near the wreck, local media reported.
