BAYESIAN The Super Yacht Sinking | A Timeline of Events (2024)

#bayesian #yacht #sinking BAYESIAN The Super Yacht Sinking | A Timeline of Events On Monday, August 19th, 2024, Bayesian, a superyacht owned by the family of British billionaire and tech giant, Mike Lynch, sank off the coast of Sicily. Including Lynch, there were twenty-two people aboard Bayesian when she sank, including ten crew members and twelve guests. Guests included Lynch's family and friends, as well as business associates. They had gathered to celebrate Lynch's acquittal from trial after he was accused of fraud when selling his company to Hewlett Packard in 2011. The gathering was supposed to be one of cheer, though it would ultimately end in disaster. Caught in a freak storm, the yacht is said to have encountered a waterspout when it sank, some say by being forced on its side and filling with water. Whatever the cause, it is clear that the vessel sank quickly, with questions now being asked about its keel, crew, and if things could have been avoided. Of the twenty-two aboard, fifteen managed to escape to safety. After a search and rescue mission was launched, the bodies of the remaining seven passengers were ultimately recovered. Those who lost their lives included the yacht's owner, Mike Lynch, and his teenage daughter, Hannah Lynch. An official investigation was launched into the cause of the disaster, and at the time this video was made, has just gotten underway. There are many questions and possibilities, regarding the Bayesian and how it came to sink so quickly. It may be some time before any concrete confirmation is released. Thoughts go out to those who lost their lives, and their families. #superyacht #mikelynch #italy #boat #ship #incident #sank #documentary #film #timeline #interior #storm
