Specialist cave divers kept up their efforts on Tuesday evening, braving the deep to scour the submerged remains of the vessel. They’re holding onto the slim chance of discovering the remaining passengers, including entrepreneur Lynch and his teenage daughter Hannah, possibly shielded by life-saving air pockets in the belly of the yacht now lying around 165ft below sea level, reports the Mirror.
Rescue teams are battling a “world of objects” that’s hampering their efforts to reach rooms in a sunken vessel, with divers having a mere ten-minute window to scour the area before needing air.
