Search teams have recovered the bodies of 5 foreign tourists from inside a dive boat that sank three days ago off Thailand's south-western coast. The search is continuing for a Thai national. The body of an Austrian woman was found on Tuesday.  The boat was returning from a dive trip near the Similan islands in the Andaman Sea when it capsized during a storm. The Thai navy said the other twenty three passengers were rescued shortly after the boat sank.
