Divers have located the body of Hannah Lynch, the 18-year-old daughter of former Massachusetts attorney general, Mike Lynch. Hannah had been missing since the superyacht she was on sank in Brewster, Massachusetts. The yacht, named the Perseverance, sank on Sunday, leaving Hannah and two other crew members missing. The body of one crew member was recovered shortly after the incident.
Authorities had launched an extensive search effort to locate Hannah, using divers, helicopters, and drones. The search was complicated by poor visibility and strong currents in the area. The discovery of Hannah’s body brings closure to her family and loved ones who had been anxiously awaiting news of her whereabouts.
Mike Lynch released a statement expressing his gratitude to all those involved in the search and recovery efforts. He thanked the Coast Guard, local police, and volunteers who had worked tirelessly to locate his daughter. The Lynch family is mourning the loss of Hannah and processing the tragic events that led to her death.
The cause of the superyacht sinking is still under investigation, and authorities are working to determine what exactly happened that resulted in the vessel going down. The Perseverance was reportedly a 69-foot luxury yacht that had been chartered for a weekend trip. The incident has shocked the local community and serves as a reminder of the dangers that can come with being out at sea.
