One man is confirmed dead, six others are missing and 15 have been rescued after a luxury superyacht sinks in storm off Sicily, authorities confirmed Monday.
The Italian coast guard said the sailboat overturned sometime after 5 a.m. off the port of Porticello, near Palermo, where it was anchored. Ten crew members and 12 passengers, including British, American and Canadian nationalities were onboard.
"The wind was very strong. Bad weather was expected, but not of this magnitude," a coast guard official in Palermo told Reuters.
