Family shares new photos of Mike Lynch and his daughter Hannah following the yacht tragedy

Tributes are pouring in for Hannah Lynch, the last victim of the Bayesian superyacht sinking to have been recovered.

Friends of the 18-year-old described her as a ‘warm and beautiful soul’ who made her peers ‘feel whole and happy’.

The model student, who was due to start at Oxford University this year, ‘loved literature, learning and life’, according to her former English teacher.

Hannah was on board the yacht with her father Mike when it sank at around 5am local time off the coast of Sicily on Monday, killing six of the 22 passengers and crew who were on board.

The tragedy has baffled experts, who say the vessel – said by its manufacturer to be ‘virtually unsinkable’ – should have withstood the storm.
