Eleanor Lightbody said in a statement: ‘I am devastated to hear the news about our founding investor, Mike Lynch, and all of those involved in this tragic accident.’Mike was a visionary unlike any other. He had a unique ability to spot the next technological revolution and solve tomorrow’s challenges before others even knew they were coming.’Above all, Mike was a kind man who had an impact on many and will be sorely missed. I feel honoured to have known him, worked with him and learnt from him over the years.’The UK has lost someone with the means, authority, knowledge and drive to propel the UK into technological leadership, but his legacy will live on in all of the extraordinary businesses he built and mentored, as well as his family who are in my thoughts.’The body of the fifth person recovered from the yacht’s wreckage was returned in a blue body bag to the port of Porticello on Thursday morning.Of the 22 passengers and crew on board, 15 – including Mr Lynch’s wife, Angela Bacares – were rescued after escaping on to a lifeboat.The body of Canadian-Antiguan national Mr Thomas, who was working as a chef on the superyacht Bayesian, was recovered at the scene of the sinking on Monday.The boat trip was a celebration of Mr Lynch’s acquittal in a fraud case in the US.The businessman, who founded software giant Autonomy in 1996, was cleared in June of carrying out a massive fraud relating to its 11 billion US dollar (£8.64 billion) sale to US company Hewlett Packard.A decision on whether to raise the sunken yacht from the seabed is ‘not on the agenda’, but will be in the future, a spokesman from the Italian Coastguard has said.Vincenzo Zagarola told PA: ‘This is not a topic on the agenda.
