A tourist who was CEO of the American arm of the British publisher that launched Harry Potter in the UK was killed off Italy’s Amalfi Coast after the motorboat she was riding on with her family collided with a sailing vessel rented for special events.
The sailboat company confirmed by telephone to CNN that its 45-meter boat, the Tortuga, had 80 guests on board, including Americans and Germans, when the tragedy occurred. The captain of the sailboat did not test positive for any substances and is not under investigation, the prosecutor’s office said. Both boats were approaching the Fiordo di Furore area of the Amalfi Coast around 6 p.m. local time on Friday when the accident occurred.
