First responders are continuing their search for six individuals who are still missing one day after the superyacht Bayesian sank off the coast of Sicily due to a severe storm.

Among the missing are four British passengers and two Americans, according to reports from CNN, The Independent, and Sky News.

Jonathan Bloomer, Chairman of Morgan Stanley International, and his wife Judy were on board the 183-foot yacht when it started taking on water in the early hours of Monday, August 19. The vessel, which had 22 people aboard, was caught in distressing conditions.

On August 20, London-based insurance company Hiscox, where Jonathan Bloomer also serves as chairman, issued a statement addressing the tragedy.

"Our thoughts are with everyone affected by this tragedy, especially our chairman Jonathan Bloomer and his wife Judy, who are among the missing," said Chief Executive Aki Hussain, according to CNN. "We also extend our support to their family as they await further updates on this dire situation."

New York City attorney Christopher Morvino, a partner at the London-based firm Clifford Chance, and his wife Neda, a jewelry designer, were also on the yacht. They are parents to two daughters, Sabrina and Sophia, as noted in a LinkedIn post by Morvino in June.

According to The Independent, the group—comprised of several attorneys—had gathered to celebrate a recent legal victory in the U.S., where Lynch was acquitted of fraud charges.

Lynch and his 18-year-old daughter, Hannah, are also among the missing following the incident. Hannah's school in West London expressed its shock in a statement, according to The Guardian, saying, "We are all deeply shocked by the news that Hannah and her father are among those missing in this tragic incident. Our thoughts are with their family and everyone involved as we await further updates."

Lynch’s wife, Angela Bacares, was among the 15 survivors from the 22 people originally on board the Bayesian, according to the Italian Coast Guard and local sources. Of the rescued, eight were transported to local hospitals.
