PORTICELLO, Italy, Aug 22 (Reuters) - Italian rescue

divers have recovered a body from the wreck of the family yacht

of British tech magnate Mike Lynch that sank on Monday, a

Reuters video showed on Thursday, the fifth to have been

recovered since a day ago.

On Wednesday, divers retrieved four bodies from the wreck,

which were transported to nearby hospitals in the city of

Palermo. They were not officially identified.

The yacht sank during an intense storm on Monday with 22 on

board, though 15 people, including Lynch's wife, managed to

escape. The body of the onboard chef, Canadian-Antiguan national

Recaldo Thomas, was found near the wreck hours after the

disaster, leaving six people unaccounted for at the time.

Operations resumed early on Thursday for the last body

trapped in the vessel, which lay at a depth of almost 50 metres

(55 yards).
