Mike Lynch and daughter among missing after yacht sinks: What we know about disaster - and 'alarming' potential causeThe British-flagged luxury vessel named Bayesian was carrying 22 people when it got into difficulty off the coast of Sicily. Seven bodies have now been recovered from the wreckage. News reporter @samuelosborne93 Friday 23 August 2024 12:24, UK Please use Chrome browser for a more accessible video player Seven bodies have been found after a superyacht sank off the coast of Sicily. Twenty-two people were on board the vessel named Bayesian when it got into difficulty in the early hours of Monday, with 15 people rescued. Here's what we know about the sinking of the luxury vessel so far. Follow latest updates on the superyacht sinking What might have caused the sinking? The British-flagged luxury vessel, named Bayesian, capsized at around 4.30am local time on Monday morning off Palermo, according to ship-tracking site Marine Traffic. It sank in as little as 60 seconds with 22 people on board, 12 passengers and a crew of 10, according to the Italian coastguard. Waterspouts, essentially tornados that form over water, were seen as powerful winds battered the area overnight, local media said. The yacht may have sunk faster with all the doors open due to the hot weather, Sailing Today magazine editor Sam Jefferson has said. "I imagine all the doors were open because it was hot, so there were enough hatches and doors open that it filled with water very quickly and sank like that," he said. Official pictures show air conditioning units in several of the rooms, however, which could counter the suggestion open windows caused the vessel to sink faster. The huge mast is also likely to have played a role, he added. What are waterspouts? Waterspouts typically occur during thunderstorms and can develop very rapidly, within minutes. Their spin generally reaches wind speeds between 75-200mph, but can reach as high as 300mph. They can travel at about 10-20mph typically but can reach greater speeds, making them difficult to avoid - especially in something as slow-moving as a yacht. Matthew Schanck, chair of the Maritime Search and Rescue Council, called the reports of a tornado or waterspout "rare" and "quite alarming". "The vessel was at anchor in a recognised anchorage," Mr Schanck said. "Depending on wind direction and the state of the sea, this informs the captain whether it is a safe area to anchor or not. There was nothing that was too concerning, for my eye. All in all, the captain used the information they had to make a safe call." Who owns the yacht? The yacht belonged to the family of British tech tycoon Mike Lynch. He was confirmed to have died after rescuers found his body on Thursday. Mr Lynch was on holiday with his 18-year-old daughter Hannah, who is still missing, and his wife Angela Bacares, who was rescued. Mr Lynch, 59, was known as the " British Bill Gates " and has been in the headlines in recent months over a high-profile fraud case. In June, a US jury cleared him of all charges, which were related to the 2011 sale of his software company Autonomy to Hewlett-Packard (HP). The yacht trip is believed to have been a celebration of the end of Mr Lynch's legal troubles. HP accused him of deliberately overstating the value of the company before it was acquired by the American tech giant. Mr Lynch was extradited to the US to face trial in May last year and spent 13 months under house arrest in San Francisco as he awaited trial on 17 charges of conspiracy and wire fraud brought by the US Department of Justice - which were later reduced to 15 charges. He always denied any wrongdoing and was acquitted. Read more: Lynch's co-defendant dies days before yacht sinking Who was on board when the boat sank? The passengers were largely British and American, with crew members were from New Zealand, South Africa, and Canada. Charlotte Golunski was among the Britons rescued. Her LinkedIn profile says she is a partner at Mr Lynch's firm Invoke Capital and has worked there since 2012. Speaking after the ordeal, Ms Golunski told Italian media that she lost her daughter Sofia for "two seconds" amid the "fury" of the sea but was able to retrieve her. She said she held the infant above the waves until the lifeboat was ready. "Many people screamed. Luckily the lifeboat inflated and 11 of us were able to get on board," she told ANSA. The girl's father James Emsley also survived, according to Sicily's civil protection agency. Also on board were Jonathan Bloomer, chairman of investment bank Morgan Stanley, his wife Judy Bloomer, a top US lawyer Chris Morvillo, who worked on Mr Lynch's criminal case, and his wife Neda Morvillo. Divers confirmed on Thursday that their bodies had been recovered. The yacht's captain James Cutfield survived, along with South African crew members Leah Randall and Katja Chicken. Recaldo Thomas, a Canadian-Antiguan chef who was working on the boat, was the first to be found dead, the Italian Coastguard confirmed to Sky News. During rescue efforts, divers saw "corpses through the portholes" of the wreck as they recovered the body of a man at a depth of 50m (164ft), according to Salvo Cocina, the head of the Civil Protection of Sicily. What do we know about the vessel? The Bayesian is owned by a company controlled by Mr Lynch's wife. It was known for its unusual 72.3m (246ft) single mast - one of the world's tallest made of aluminium - and shared its name with the statistical method Mr Lynch's Autonomy software was based on. It was built by Italian company Perini Navi in 2008 and last refitted in 2020. It was listed for rent for up to €195,000 (£166,000) a week, according to online charter sites. The luxury vessel , which was managed by yachting company Camper & Nicholsons, could accommodate up to 12 guests in six suites. It won a string of awards for its design, according to online specialist yacht sites. Mr Schanck, of the Maritime Search and Rescue Council, said the vessel would have been equipped with "high standard" life-saving appliances and radio communications. He added the yacht would have met all international standards and UK Maritime Coastguard Agency regulations before its voyage. It was previously named Salute, or "health" in Italian, when it flew under a Dutch flag. Its minimalist interior featured light wood with Japanese accents designed by the French designer Remi Tessier, according to descriptions on charter sites.

The boat left the Sicilian port of Milazzo on 14 August and was last tracked east of Palermo on Sunday evening, with a navigation status of "at anchor", according to vessel tracking site VesselFinder. The Bayesian previously travelled to other parts of Sicily before its last sighting off the coast of the port of Porticello. On Sunday, the boat was seen off the coast of Cefalu before it travelled towards Porticello, MarineTraffic data shows. In the days before, the yacht travelled around four of the Aeolian islands, just north of Sicily.

Yachts in your shortlist Who was onboard tech mogul Mike Lynch's Bayesian yacht?Topic: Disasters, Accidents and Emergency Incidents Six people are missing, including a man dubbed the British Bill Gates, after a luxury yacht sank off the Sicilian coast. British tech entrepreneur Mike Lynch — freshly acquitted from a decade-long trial — had invited his work colleagues aboard a trip through the Mediterranean coast when a freak storm saw the yacht sink within moments. Fifteen people escaped from the sinking vessel. The search for the missing continues. Here's what we know so far: What happened?The Italian coastguard said the yacht — the Bayesian — was anchored off the shore of port city Porticello, near the Sicilian capital Palermo, when it was hit by bad weather sometime after 4am on Monday, local time. Eyewitnesses said it vanished quickly beneath the waves shortly before dawn. Managers of the sailing vessel Bayesian, Camper & Nicholsons, confirmed to the ABC that the Bayesian encountered severe weather and subsequently sank. "Our priority is assisting with the ongoing search and providing all necessary support to the rescued passengers and crew," they said. "The wind was very strong. Bad weather was expected, but not of this magnitude," a coastguard official told Reuters. Sicily's civil protection agency head, Salvo Cocina, said a waterspout — a tornado over the water — could have struck the yacht. "They were in the wrong place at the wrong time," Mr Cocina added. Storms and heavy rainfall had swept down Italy in recent days after weeks of scorching heat, lifting the temperature of the Mediterranean Sea to record levels and raising the risk of extreme weather conditions, experts told Reuters. "The sea surface temperature around Sicily was around 30 degrees Celsius, which is almost 3 degrees more than normal. This creates an enormous source of energy that contributes to these storms," meteorologist Luca Mercalli said. Rescuers recover the body of one of the people aboard the Bayesian. ( AP: Lucio Ganci ) Captain Karsten Borner of the Sir Robert Baden Powell vessel told journalists he noticed the Bayesian nearby during the storm, but after it calmed he saw a red flare and realised the ship had simply disappeared. Mr Borner said he and a crew member boarded their tender and found a lifeboat with 15 people, some of them injured, who they then took aboard and alerted the coast guard. Search crews, including helicopters and divers, are continuing to search the wreckage, lying at a depth of 49 metres. Specialist divers reached the ship on Monday but access was limited due to objects in the way, the fire brigade said. The UK Marine Accident Investigation Branch is deploying a team of four inspectors to Italy to conduct a preliminary assessment. The Foreign Commonwealth and Development office said it was "providing consular support to a number of British nationals and their families". Sicilian prosecutors have also opened an investigation into the event. Who is missing?Lawyer Chris Morvillo (left), entrepreneur Mike Lynch, and Morgan Stanley chairman Jonathan Bloomer are among the missing. There were 12 passengers and 10 crew members aboard the yacht. Mr Cocina said the crew and passengers hailed from a variety of countries, including Britain, the United States, Antigua, France, Germany, Ireland, Myanmar, the Netherlands, New Zealand and Spain. Of the 22, one man is confirmed dead and another six people are still missing. They are believed to be inside the hull, fire rescue spokesperson Luca Cari said. Fabio Cefalù, a fisherman who said he responded to a flare from the vessel but found it sunk, said he stayed at the site for three hours without finding anyone. "I think they are inside, all the missing people," he said. Rescue teams recovered the body of the yacht's onboard chef on Monday, identified as Antiguan citizen Ricardo Thomas. The still missing people include: - Mr Lynch's 18-year-old daughter, Hannah
- Jonathan Bloomer, chairman of global financial services company Morgan Stanley International
- Chris Morvillo , a lawyer at the British multinational law firm Clifford Chance. He worked on Mr Lynch's lawsuit against Hewlett-Packard
- The identities of the remaining two missing are still unconfirmed
Who was rescued? Fifteen people escaped from the sinking ship. Eight have been hospitalised and others were taken to a nearby hotel. Charlotte Golunski was among those rescued, recalling the harrowing moments she held her child Sofia above the waves. ( Supplied: Facebook ) Among those rescued were: - Mr Lynch's wife, Angela Bacares, who was the owner of the yacht
- Charlotte Golunski and her one-year-old daughter, Sofia. Ms Golunski is a partner at Mr Lynch's firm, Invoke Capital. She says she momentarily lost hold of Sofia in the water but managed to hold her up above the waves until the lifeboat was inflated
- Ms Golunski's husband James Emslie
- New Zealand captain of the yacht James Catfield. He told Italian newspaper La Repubblica the crew didn't see the storm coming
- A lone Dutch citizen was identified by the Dutch foreign ministry as being rescued, but was not identified
Who is Mike Lynch?Mr Lynch, once hailed as Britain’s king of technology, was recently freed from a Silicon Valley lawsuit that tarnished his legacy. The 59-year-old Cambridge-educated mathematician created Autonomy , a search engine that could pore through emails and other internal business documents to help companies find vital information more quickly. He received the OBE for his innovation in 2006. He then sold the software to Hewlett-Packard (HP) for $US11 billion ($16 billion) in 2011, with Mr Lynch personally netting $US800 million. HP valued Autonomy at $US46 billion ($68 billion) in the months leading up to the deal. Mike Lynch in 2019 leaving the High Court in London. ( Reuters: Henry Nicholls/File Photo ) But the deal quickly turned sour after he was accused of forging the software's financial records to make the sale. As part of a decades-long legal battle against HP, Mr Lynch was extradited to the UK on criminal fraud charges. He steadfastly denied any wrongdoing, asserting that he was being made a scapegoat for HP's own bungling. He was eventually cleared of all charges in June this year. Although he avoided a possible prison sentence, Lynch still faced a bill from a civil case in London that HP mostly won during 2022. Damages haven't been determined in that case, but HP is seeking $US4 billion. Following the San Francisco trial, Mr Lynch said he would return to the UK and do what he loved most: "[being with] my family and innovating in my field." The holiday appeared to be something of a celebration after Mr Lynch's acquittal, with guests including some of the people who had stood by Lynch throughout the ordeal. This picture shows the rescue operations off the Sicilian coast. ( AP: Italian Coast Guard ) In a separate act of tragedy, Mr Lynch's co-defendant in the trial, Stephen Chamberlain, died on Monday, after a road accident left him critically injured. Mr Chamberlain — Autonomy's former vice-president of finance alongside Mr Lynch — was hit by a car in Cambridgeshire on Saturday morning and had been placed on life support. What is the Bayesian?The luxury yacht is 56m long sailboat, with a 75m mast labelled as the tallest aluminium mast in the world. It was previously named Salute when it flew under a Dutch flag. The yacht, built in 2008 by the Italian firm Perini Navi, can accommodate up to 12 guests in six suites and a crew of 10, according to online specialist yacht sites. It was last refitted in 2020. Online charter sites listed it for rent for up to 195,000 euros (about $AU 321,000) a week. This picture taken on Sunday shows the Bayesian (left) and the Duch sailboat Sir Robert Baden Powell anchored off the coast line. ( AP: Fabio La Bianca/Baia Santa Nicolicchia ) The ship also won a string of awards for its design. Ms Golunski said the yacht had travelled through the Aeolian Islands, Milazzo and Cefalù before sinking. It is likely the yacht's name would resonate with Mr Lynch because his PhD thesis and the software that made his fortune was based on Bayesian theory. Experts puzzle over why Bayesian yacht sank. Was it a 'black swan event'?The Bayesian set off on a leisurely cruise around Italy's southern coast on a sunny day in late July. The luxurious super yacht − which boasted one of the largest masts in the world and carried a crew of business moguls, including British tech tycoon Mike Lynch and his family and a chair of Morgan Stanley − set sail from the Amalfi Coast, bound for Sicily. Less than a month later, the ship had sunk 160 feet under the water , leaving its cook dead and six of its passengers, including at least two Americans, missing and prompting a massive search that has drawn international attention. Now, experts are trying to piece together why in the early hours Monday the Bayesian was quickly pulled under the waves amid a storm that saw at least one tornado spin up over the water. Breaking news to start your day smart. Sign up for USA TODAY's Daily Briefing newsletter. A perfect storm led to Bayesian sinking, experts sayThe combination of unlikely factors that could have contributed to the ship's fate constituted a "black swan event," Matthew Schanck, chairman of the Maritime Search and Rescue Council, told USA TODAY. The Bayesian was well-built: A 2008 product of Italian ship maker Perini, it was constructed in accordance with international maritime standards and commercially certified by the U.K.'s Maritime and Coastguard Agency, according to Schanck. The bout of bad weather that swept the area when the ship went down was also out of the ordinary in the northern Mediterranean, "which isn't renowned for prolonged, significant stormy weather," he said. "The fact that those two elements have then resulted in the foundering of a super yacht is pretty extraordinary," Schanck said. "These things don't happen every day." After the ship sank just before 5 a.m. local time, 15 people, including a 1-year-old, were pulled from the water. Some were rescued from a life raft by the crew of a ship docked nearby. Ricardo Thomas, the ship's cook and a native of Antigua, was found dead, according to authorities. As of Tuesday, six people were missing, including Lynch and his 18-year-old daughter. Several missing passengers were involved in Lynch's trial on fraud charges, including Jonathan Bloomer, a Morgan Stanley chair who served as his character witness, and one of Lynch's attorneys. Lynch, accused of fraud after he sold his company to electronics giant Hewlett-Packard, was acquitted of all charges weeks ago. Who is Mike Lynch? UK entrepreneur among those missing after superyacht sinks off Sicily Tornado formed over unusually hot waterStorms in the area that night may have whipped up a water spout, a tornado over the water , according to local meteorologists. It was likely triggered by the water's unusual warmth, said Rick Shema, a certified consulting meteorologist who served in the Navy. "The water spout was an uncommon occurrence," he said. "But again, these things happen, especially in warmer water." At 83.7 degrees, water in the area was more than 3 degrees hotter than average on the day the Bayesian sank, likely the result of climate change, Shema said. "Hurricanes can form at 80 degrees. This was almost four degrees higher than that," he said. The water spout may have spun up when cooler air dropped from mountainous places nearby onto the hot water, he said. "A water spout is a vortex, basically like a tornado, spinning real fast, sucking up water and moisture as the column rises," he said. Although water spouts only reach around 120 mph, as compared with tornadoes on land, which can reach up to 300 mph, "you don't need 200 mph to sink a ship," he said. "Even an average tornado, 120 miles an hour, that's a lot of wind," he said, "which would heel the boat over for sure." Water spouts spring up suddenly, Shema said. Before they strike, winds can be slow, but "once the water spout comes over, bam, it's on," he said. Before sunrise, the ship's crew may not have seen the water spout coming. "The visibility was probably a big factor," he said. With the windows of the yacht opened, as they likely were in the hot weather, the water spout could have triggered water that flooded through the portholes, Shema said, causing the ship to sink. Tragedy strikes: Scramble to find survivors after Bayesian yacht sinks off Sicily coast Search continues, but shift to recovery phase approachesItalian authorities said the Bayesian was probably at anchor when the storm struck, meaning it couldn't maneuver and ride the waves, according to Mitchell Stoller, a captain and maritime expert witness. Other ships in the area that turned on their engines rode out the storm, he said. "When you're at anchor and you see weather, you start your engine and you put the wind on the bow. You don't let it get on the side," he said. Schanck said another key question concerns the position of the keel, a heavy weight underneath the boat that acts as a counterbalance to keep it upright, when the ship sank. When lifted, "that's going to affect the stability of the vessel, because, obviously, you've now raised the center of gravity of that vessel," he said. The Bayesian was floating over 160 feet of water at the time, deep enough that the keel would likely be deployed. But the fact that "the vessel heeled over so heavily makes me question that," Schanck said. The cause of the disaster may not be known until the ship can be examined in more detail, experts say. Prosecutors in a nearby town have already opened an investigation. Schanck said investigators will have plenty to work with once the operation moves into a recovery phase. "The vessel is intact and in good condition on the seabed," he said. "There's a lot of eyewitness accounts from other vessels in the area and the shore." As the search entered its second day on Tuesday, the rescue effort may shift in that direction soon. "I suspect, later on, today or tomorrow, we'll probably see some mention of a recovery operation being stated," Schanck said. The decision to would depend on whether rescuers find signs of life in the ship and air pockets or survivable spaces, Schanck said. At this point, survivors on the water's surface looks unlikely. "My professional opinion is that the casualties will be located within the vessel," he said. "There is a risk versus benefit in all maritime search and rescue incidents," he said. "Where we start transitioning to a recovery phase, that line shifts." Contributing: Reuters Cybele Mayes-Osterman is a breaking news reporter for USA Today. Reach her on email at [email protected].
