PORTICELLO, Italy (Reuters) -Salvage experts hauled British tech tycoon Mike Lynch's superyacht from the water on Saturday and plan to take it to a Sicilian port for inspection, 10 months after it sank off the coast of Sicily, killing Lynch, his teenage daughter and five others.

Work had resumed at first light, with one of the most powerful maritime cranes in Europe used to haul the 56-metre-long (184-foot) Bayesian from beneath the waves.
