61m Royal Hakvoort superyacht Top Five II delivered

The 61m Sinot-designed Royal Hakvoort superyacht Top Five II has been delivered after successfully completing sea trials. 

The yacht has now departed the Dutch yard to begin its maiden voyage, which will see the yacht cross the Atlantic for Florida. It comes after the yacht, previously known as Project Sidney and Project YN 251 , first hit the water in April 2021 from the builder’s Monnickendam-based facility in the Netherlands.

Commissioned by a “passionate owner”, the yacht was sold in cooperation with Moran Yacht & Ship . Described as an “ocean-going explorer”, Top Five II is designed inside and out by Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design with naval architecture by Diana Yacht Design .

“The owner’s spent five years researching shipyards to build his new yacht. It was the charm and character of this small bespoke yard in the heart of the historic city of Monnickendam that drew them in, and they decided that this is where they can create something truly unique,” said owner’s representatives Monique and Justin de Chalain.

The yacht features a number of standout superyacht features including a cinema room, large tender and toy store, upper deck swimming pool, outdoor kitchen and a firepit on the sun deck.

Accommodation is for a total of 12 guests and 19 crew with the guest quarters comprising five guest cabins on the main deck and a full-beam owner’s suite on the dedicated owner’s deck. Flooded with natural light, the owner’s deck includes a private dining area and Jacuzzi on the foredeck.

The interior is described as “clean and classic”, with materials including oak, walnut and leather detailing while Italian marble and rich fabrics create a “rich, warm environment”.

Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design partner Paul Costerus previously said: “The continuous flow and balance in the interior is something you can really feel when you step onboard.”

He added that the “immense ceiling heights”, at 2.3m – 2.4m, are the “most exciting feature” on board. “It’s a great achievement on a 61 metre yacht,” he added. Power will come from twin Caterpillar 3512E diesel engines for a top speed of 14.7 knots and a cruising speed of 12.7 knots

Growing up on a farm in South<br /> Africa’s Free State, Joe was easily drawn to the yachting lifestyle. He began his yachting career as<br /> an engineer and eventually became a yacht captain in 2002. Joe’s natural navigation and mechanical<br /> skills combined with his positive attitude make him a true asset to the yachting industry. His dedication<br /> to yachting is seen in his many achievements, including obtaining his Y3 Chief Engineer license.<br /> These certifications have provided an impressive foundation for his yachting career. Today, Joe holds<br /> 20 years of captaincy under his belt. Boasting a Master Y4 3000 GT MCA Captain’s license, Joe has<br /> travelled through the Bahamas, Caribbean, Mediterranean, along with most coastal waters. Wellversed<br /> in navigating the world’s oceans, Captain Johannes is sure to provide the ultimate yachting<br /> experience. <br /> <br /> GRANT HEUNIS | Rotational Captain | South Africa <br /> Grant grew up in East London, South Africa and joined Top Five II from a well-known and successful<br /> charter yacht - M/Y Elysian. Grant began his career as a Deckhand giving him an invaluable understanding<br /> of each position onboard. He gained his MCA Master 3000 Ton License in 2012 and took<br /> over as full-time Captain of M/Y Passion. Having acted as a relief Captain for some time already,<br /> this was a smooth transition for Grant, and he has since exceeded all expectations in the role. Grant<br /> has extensive cruising experience in the Caribbean, Bahamas, East Coast of the USA, Mediterranean,<br /> Adriatic, and Aegean waters. Grant is a qualified PADI rescue diver and RYA Jet Ski Instructor.<br /> A keen sportsman, having competed for his provincial team in water polo, he enjoys the outdoors,<br /> surfing, keeping fit and hiking.<br /> <br /> ROB FULLER | Head Chef | England<br /> Chef Rob has been a Chef for many years & has travelled all over the world. Originally from England,<br /> where he was formally trained in the culinary arts, Rob seized the opportunity to be a Sous chef at<br /> the prestigious Ritz de Paris. From Paris he joined the yachting industry where his culinary knowledge<br /> has served him well. Mediterranean cuisine to Japanese cuisine is quite a diversification in the<br /> culinary world. Having worked with employers such as the Fayyad family, Danielle Steele and Giorgio<br /> Armani in their residences, villas and yachts, Chef Rob can supply high-end culinary masterpieces for<br /> the charter and guests. Chef Rob understands the diverse requirements for the client regardless of<br /> location or resources, creating menus from local ingredients is a fulfilling challenge.<br /> <br /> ROBERT SOLOMON | Chief Officer (Rotational) | South Africa<br /> Rob was born in Johannesburg, South Africa. Having grown up on a lake, Rob spent all day in and<br /> around the water. He has a strong passion for all water sports and loves being outdoors. Rob joined<br /> the industry in 2003 and now has his Chief Mate 3000 qualification. He has worked on a variety of<br /> vessels over the years and has cruised the Adriatic, Mediterranean, Caribbean, Bahamas, east coast<br /> of Africa and east coast of the USA. He was a crew member on the first Top Five so when the new<br /> build was commissioned, he jumped at the opportunity to join the program again.

Most expenses are deducted from an Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA), a fund that is added on top of the charter price. The expenses, such as provisioning, fuel, marina fees, are deducted from the APA. The APA is based on the price of the yacht and ranges from 15% (crewed sailing yachts) to 30% (motor yachts with higher fuel consumption). You can actively control these expenses in your preference sheet (local vs. imported beverages) and by choice of itinerary (distances traveled). The remainder of the APA is returned after charter.">Price Terms: Plus Expenses

Price from $550,000/week

High season $600,000/week

Despite being raised in<br /> Calgary, Alberta; a city surrounded by mountains and prairies; she always knew that her career would<br /> take her seaward. Niki has always had a curiosity about how and why things work the way they do.<br /> From a young age Niki was a tinkerer, choosing to work on her own cars rather than take them to<br /> a mechanic, work on home projects, and dismantle anything she could, just to take a peek inside.<br /> While attending a university transfer semester in Nice, France, she learned about the yachting industry.<br /> It was clear to her then, that yachting was the perfect way to combine her love for the sea, and<br /> constant curiosity into a rewarding career.<br /> <br /> <br /> ";s:5:"photo";s:0:"";s:4:"size";s:2:"19";s:12:"captain_name";s:13:"Johannes Buys";s:14:"captain_nation";s:13:"South African";s:12:"captain_born";s:1:"0";s:15:"captain_license";s:0:"";s:18:"captain_yr_sailing";s:1:"0";s:21:"captain_yr_chartering";s:1:"0";s:17:"captain_languages";s:0:"";s:9:"crew_name";s:0:"";s:16:"crew_nationality";s:0:"";s:12:"crew_license";s:0:"";s:15:"crew_yr_sailing";s:1:"0";s:18:"crew_yr_chartering";s:1:"0";s:7:"crewimg";a:10:{i:1;a:2:{s:3:"url";s:77:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht7572/7572crew1.jpg";s:4:"desc";s:7:"Captain";}i:2;a:2:{s:3:"url";s:77:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht7572/7572crew2.jpg";s:4:"desc";s:18:"Rotational Captain";}i:3;a:2:{s:3:"url";s:77:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht7572/7572crew3.jpg";s:4:"desc";s:4:"CHEF";}i:4;a:2:{s:3:"url";s:77:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht7572/7572crew4.jpg";s:4:"desc";s:9:"Sous Chef";}i:5;a:2:{s:3:"url";s:77:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht7572/7572crew5.jpg";s:4:"desc";s:24:"Rotational Chief Officer";}i:6;a:2:{s:3:"url";s:77:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht7572/7572crew6.jpg";s:4:"desc";s:8:"Deckhand";}i:7;a:2:{s:3:"url";s:77:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht7572/7572crew7.jpg";s:4:"desc";s:5:"Bosun";}i:8;a:2:{s:3:"url";s:77:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht7572/7572crew8.jpg";s:4:"desc";s:8:"Deckhand";}i:9;a:2:{s:3:"url";s:76:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht7572/7572crew9.jpg";s:4:"desc";s:31:"Deckhand / Kite Surf Instructor";}i:10;a:2:{s:3:"url";s:78:"https://www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht7572/7572crew10.jpg";s:4:"desc";s:8:"Deckhand";}}} wpcf_mainimg: /wp-content/uploads/yacht/c/top-five-ii/top-five-ii-main-image-uprayc-1676141702.jpg wpcf_mainimg_description: Amassing an impressive length of 200'2" (61m), the Royal Hakvoort yacht offers an array of standout amenities and reinforced hull, and immense ceiling heights throughout.

Provisioning Allowance (APA), a fund that is added on top of the charter price. The expenses, such as provisioning, fuel, marina fees, are deducted from the APA. The APA is based on the price of the yacht and ranges from 15% (crewed sailing yachts) to 30% (motor yachts with higher fuel consumption). You can actively control these expenses in your preference sheet (local vs. imported beverages) and by choice of itinerary (distances traveled). The remainder of the APA is returned after charter.">Price Terms: Plus Expenses Price from $550,000/week High season $600,000/week Base Price: $550,000 Advance Provisioning Allowance 35% $192,500 Total: $742,500 Yachts are usually 80% booked for the main season.

Check availability and arrange your itinerary with us today: Mike Lynch yacht sinking latest: Manslaughter probe to look at crew responsibility as tributes paid to Hannah LIVE – Updated at 11:23 A manslaughter investigation has been launched following the deaths of  seven people onboard the Bayesian  superyacht  which sank off the coast of  Sicily . Italian public prosecutor Ambrogio Cartosio, from nearby town Termini Imerese, said his office h as opened an initial investigation into manslaughter and negligent  shipwreck . No specific suspects have been named, so far. At a press conference, prosecutors were asked about the Bayesian crew’s responsibilities considering all but one survived.  Prosecutors said they were “concentrating on this particular aspect”. They want to “discover how much they knew and to what extent all the people [passengers] were warned”. It comes as tributes have poured in for Hannah Lynch, who  died with her father on the superyacht . Sasha Murray, chief stewardess of the Bayesian who is understood to have been rescued from the yacht described Hannah as a “diamond in a sea of stars”. “What most people may not have seen was the extraordinarily strong, deep and loving relationship she shared with her parents, whom she adored more than anything,” she added. Morgan Stanley chairman Jonathan Bloomer, his wife Judith Bloomer, Clifford Chance lawyer Christopher Morvillo and his wife Neda Morvillo also died on the boat. Prosecutor says likely Bayesian victims tried to escape sinking superyacht A manslaughter investigation has been opened into the deaths Key takeaways from the press conference Five bodies were found in same cabin, prosecution says A diver who searched the wreck of the Bayesian for missing passengers has spoken of his team’s strong emotional reaction to recovering the body of Hannah Lynch during the complex operation. “Finding bodies underwater is our job, you get used to it and keep your emotions under control, but locating the girl was different — it was an emotional moment because she was so young,” Fabio Paoletti, a member of the Italian firefighters’ diving team told The Sunday Times . He added: “We got into a large room, but I couldn’t say how large because I couldn’t see the walls. That led to a staircase down to a narrow corridor linking to the cabins. “Entering the Bayesian we needed to check for any obstacles that could impede our exit, which was crucial since you had such little time to get out. “That means looking for a door or lid that could swing open or a curtain that could get in your way. You clear the path.” Tributes to a ‘brave’ and ‘selfless’ friend who died on Bayesian Friends of Recaldo “Rick” Thomas have paid tribute to their ‘brave’ and ‘selfless’ friend who was found in the water near the superyacht Bayesian. “Rick could have jumped off and survived, I have no doubt about that. But he wouldn’t have left people on board and just swum away,” his friend Gareth Williams told The Sunday Times . “I read that the first mate was quite young, Rick would have said to him, ‘Get off the boat, man, I am here, I got this.’ That’s just who he was.” He added: “He had this infectious smile and a sultry, baritone voice. He was the type of person you could sit in a room with — no TV, no music playing, and just be. You didn’t have to say a word. You just enjoy his company.” Tribute to ‘genius’ storyteller Mike Lynch Susannah Gurdun, a close family friend of the Lynch’s from Suffolk, shared a series of heartfelt stories about Mike Lynch and who he was beyond being one of Britain’s biggest tech moguls. Ms Gurdun told of his “thrilling ability” to explain difficult and complicated concepts in a way people could easily understand. His wife, Angela Bacares, and his daughters were telling Ms Gurdun of his ability to “conjure beautiful stories out of thin air”. The following evening, Mr Lynch told a story as the dinner plates were cleared about a hero, who was the same age as Ms Gurdun’s son, embarking on adventures in search of treasure. She called it “magical”. She added that she was not surprised to learn that Hannah had begun showing “serious literary promise”. Mapped: Where did the Bayesian sink?

Giant masts, moon pools and explorer pods: How the world of yachts got supersized It is probable offences were committed, prosecutor says Public prosecutor Ambrogio Cartosio said he thought it was “probable that offences were committed” surrounding the sinking of the yacht. He told reporters that the sinking could have been the responsibility of the captain, crew, individuals in charge of supervision, the ship-builder, or others. He added: “We will establish each element’s responsibility – that will be done by the inquiry, so we can’t do that prematurely. “For me, it is probable that offences were committed – that it could be a case of manslaughter – but we can only establish that if you give us the time to investigate. “Media timing is completely different from that of a prosecutor. We need a minimum amount of time to come to a proper scientific conclusion.” Recap: post-mortem examinations yet to be carried out No information has yet been gleaned from an examination of the seven people who died, the prosecutor of the case has said. In response to a question about whether post-mortem examinations have been carried out, Raffaele Cammarano told a press conference in Italy: “There are a whole number of preliminary stages to go through before the autopsies.” The yacht had been hit by a downburst and the the Italian officials said they would be looking at how it could affect one vehicle and not other nearby vessels, according to the translation of the conference. The inquiry is currently an Italian affair with local involvement, but chief prosecutor Ambrogio Cartosio said: “I cannot tell you with any certainty that the inquiry will be exclusively Italian.” He added: “There will be developments, I’m sure, on that score.” Mike Lynch net worth: How the billionaire made his money Full report: Manslaughter investigation launched after Mike Lynch’s Bayesian superyacht sinks Italian public prosecutor Ambrogio Cartosio, from nearby town Termini Imerese, said his office has opened an initial investigation into manslaughter and negligent  shipwreck . No specific suspects have been named, so far. Read the full report below: Manslaughter investigation launched after Mike Lynch’s Bayesian superyacht sinks Hannah was ‘a diamond in a sea of stars’ who vowed to save her parents The daughter of tech tycoon Mike Lynch, who  died with her father  on the luxury superyacht Bayesian, has been described as a “diamond in a sea of stars” by a survivor from the tragedy. Sasha Murray, chief stewardess of the Bayesian who is understood to have been rescued from the yacht, said: “Those who knew her will know that Hannah was a diamond in a sea of stars. Bright, beautiful and always shining. “What most people may not have seen was the extraordinarily strong, deep and loving relationship she shared with her parents, whom she adored more than anything. “While swimming with them she often said, if anything ever happened she would save them. “I have no doubt that the  Irish , Latina fire that burns in her soul kept that spirited determination alive.” Who was on the Bayesian? How Mike Lynch’s inner circle celebrated end of billionaire’s 13 year court battle Who was on Bayesian and how they were celebrating end of Mike Lynch’s court battles What is a 'downburst'? Officials said the superyacht had been hit by a downburst and the Italian officials said they would be looking at how it could affect one vehicle and not other nearby vessels, according to the translation of the conference. A downburst is an intense burst of wind at ground level emenating from the strong downdraft of a thunderstorm; the wind often blows radially from a point source, as opposed to the rotating winds associated with a tornado. Downbursts usually last just a few minutes, and can be particularly dangerous for aviation. They have been blamed for a number of air crashes over the years, although the risk tends to be well forecast by meteorologists allowing pilots to avoid them. Recap: Prosecutor demands time to assess whether manslaughter charges can be brought Ambrogio Cartosio, chief prosecutor of Termini Imeres, told a press conference he thought it was “probable that offences were committed” over the seven deaths during the sinking of the Bayesian. He said officials the will examine whether the captain, crew, individuals in charge of supervision, the ship-builder, or others could bear responsibility over the deaths. “We will establish each element’s responsibility - that will be done by the inquiry, so we can’t do that prematurely. “For me, it is probable that offences were committed - that it could be a case of manslaughter - but we can only establish that if you give us the time to investigate.” Experts say recovery of Bayesian could take two months Raffaele Macauda, deputy commander of the Palermo coastguard, told the media it was “difficult” getting into the yacht’s cabins and it required “very lengthy periods to remove obstacles” through them. Mr Macauda said the coastguard is conducting in-depth environmental monitoring. He adds that the owner of the Bayesian has expressed an interest in recovering the vessel from the sea floor, but the timing of this was uncertain. Some experts have estimated it could take eight weeks to recover the yacht. Teenager who died in superyacht tragedy was ‘a diamond in a sea of stars’ who vowed to save her parents Teenager who died in superyacht tragedy was ‘a diamond in a sea of stars’ Next step: Pulling the Bayesian out of the sea ‘complex and costly' The sinking has puzzled naval marine experts who say a boat like the Bayesian, built by Italian high-end yacht manufacturer Perini, should have withstood the storm and in any case should not have sunk as quickly as it did. Pulling the Bayesian out of the sea will help investigators determine what happened, but the operation is likely to be complex and costly. The wreck is lying apparently intact on its side at a depth of 50 metres (164 feet).“It’s in the interests of the owners and managers of the ship to salvage it,” Cartosio said, adding “they have assured their full cooperation”. Giovanni Costantino , CEO of The Italian Sea Group which owns Perini, told Reuters this week the shipwreck was the result of a string of “indescribable, unreasonable errors” made by the crew, and ruled out any design or construction failings. No tornado alert before sinking - coastguard say Raffaele Macauda, deputy commander of the Palermo coastguard, said there was no alert of a tornado at the time of the sinking on Monday morning. Mr Macauda told a press conference: “Given that the conditions were such, there wasn’t anything to suggest there could be an extreme situation arising. “There are vessels that can monitor, after all, these events and one would have thought that the captain had taken precautions.” Deputy Prosecutor Raffaele Cammarano told journalists the Italian Air Force had confirmed the sinking was most likely caused by a downburst which are powerful winds that descend from a thunderstorm and spread out quickly once they hit the ground. Officials will look into the safety equipment on the sunken vessel. Mr Cammarano was asked about whether there is a black box and if the hatches were left open. He said investigators do not have exact information about the black box and that the first phase of the inquiry will look into it. Captain and other survivors questioned after Bayesian tragedy The captain James Cutfield and the other survivors have been questioned this week by authorities. None of them have commented publicly on how the ship went down. Raffaele Cammarano, another prosecutor speaking at the same news conference, said that when authorities questioned Cutfield he had been “extremely cooperative”. Lynch’s pay tribute to father and daughter lost on Bayesian Hannah Lynch’s sister Esme described her as “the most amazing, supportive and joyful sister”. Paying tribute, she said: “Hannah often burst into my bedroom and lay down with me. Sometimes beaming with a smile, sometimes cheeky, sometimes for advice. No matter what, she brought boundless love to me. “She was endlessly caring, passionately mad, unintentionally hilarious and the most amazing, supportive and joyful sister and best friend to me. “And on top of all this, she had even more love to give endlessly to all her friends, and passion to give to her incredible studies and goals. “She is my little angel, my star.” A spokesperson for the Lynch family said: “The Lynch family is devastated, in shock and is being comforted and supported by family and friends. “Their thoughts are with everyone affected by the tragedy. “They would like to sincerely thank the Italian coastguard, emergency services and all those who helped in the rescue. “Their one request now is that their privacy be respected at this time of unspeakable grief.” Diver describes tragic conditions aboard the Bayesian wreck A diver described the emotional moment the final body was pulled from the wreckage of the Bayesian when they all stopped to applaud as Hannah Lynch made it to shore. Inspector Vincenzo Nardoni, a diver drafted in from the fire brigade’s unit in Naples, said: “It was an emotional liberation, a relief of stress. “Because stress is our daily bread. We work on call and in emergencies, and we intervene immediately. So stress is our baggage, is what we bring with us.” He added “We had to revise the scene from a different angle from the way we’d normally see it, and that made everything more difficult.’ “We entered the confined spaces, having already performed evaluations on the safe point to enter inside the yacht. We found the safest spot and got inside from there. “But inside it was a very confusing place, with wardrobes and furniture whirling all around us, and lots of mirrors reflecting back our lights at us. “The bodies were all wedged in tight spots, with furniture on top or beside them. They were all stuck there.” Recap: Bayesian crew allowed to leave Sicily Chief prosecutor of Termini Imerese, Ambrogio Cartosio, said his office has opened an initial investigation into manslaughter and negligent shipwreck at a press conference. Asked whether the crew will remain in Sicily, Mr Cartosio said: “There’s no obligation, but they should be available for the investigation.” Authroties still have questions to ask the captain but that they cannot keep people in the country under Italian law. Raffaele Cammarano added his officials were going to give the crew alcohol and drug testing. He stressed no individuals were yet under investigation. British tech tycoon Mike Lynch was among seven people who died after the luxury superyacht Bayesian sank off the coast of Sicily early on Monday morning The 59-year-old is known for founding Invoke Capital and Autonomy Corporation and had been in the headlines after he was cleared of charges in a high-profile fraud case. But how did the “British Bill Gates” earn his fortune? Final moments of Bayesian victims revealed The final moments of the remaining victims of the Bayesian disaster have been revealed in a press conference earlier today. Local prosecutor Raffaele Cammarano said the meteorological event that hit the vessel was most likely a “downburst”, a very strong downward wind that is an intense but relatively frequent event at sea, rather than a water spout which involves rotating winds like a whirlwind or tornado. He said that the passengers were all probably asleep at the time of the storm which was why they failed to escape. Bentivoglio Fiandra, chief of Palermo’s fire brigade and part of the divers’ rescue team, explained that the Bayesian sank stern-first and then rolled onto its right side. “As a result, the victims sought refuge on the left side of the boat, where the last air pockets remained as the vessel was sinking,” he said. The divers found five bodies in the first cabin on the left and one, Hannah Lynch’s, in the third cabin on the left. Inspector Vincenzo Nardoni, a diver drafted in from the fire brigade’s unit in Naples: “The bodies were all wedged in tight spots, with furniture on top or beside them. They were all stuck there.” According to the Telegraph, Raffaele Cammarano, one of two prosecutors leading the case, told a press conference earlier: “There can be no certainty about the behaviour of the passengers on board, at the moment. “It is probable they tried to escape but we have no real details about that, that will emerge in the course of the inquiry.” A manslaughter investigation has been launched following the death of seven people onboard the Bayesian superyacht which sank off the coast of Sicily . Italian public prosecutor Ambrogio Cartosio, from nearby town Termini Imerese, said his office has opened an initial investigation into manslaughter and negligent shipwreck . No specific suspects have been named. British technology entrepreneur Mike Lynch and his 18-year-old daughter Hannah were among those who died after the yacht sank near Porticello around 5am local time on Monday. My colleague Jabed Ahmed reports: The following evening, Mr Lynch told a story as the dinner plates were cleared about a hero, who was the same age as Ms Gurdun’s son, embarking on adventures in search of treasure. She called it “magical”. “It is beyond tragic that we will never know where her own particular brilliance might have led… but I still feel blessed to have shared that time with them in Spain,” she said. “Not just because I witnessed Mike’s incredible storytelling; but because I was given a chance of understanding what that moment said about all four of them as a united vibrant loving family. “To those of us who knew him in that way, this family achievement – in partnership with Angela – was every bit as special and beautiful as the ones he pulled off in the world of tech and science. “Perhaps even more so – in that he did it all simultaneously. “He was an extraordinary human being and it was – truly – a privilege to have known him.” Tragic Hannah said she would save parents if they ever got in trouble swimming The chief stewardess of the tragic Beysian superyacht, has paid tribute to Hannah Lynch, 18, after her body was recovered from the wreck. Sasha Murray, released a statement, saying: “Those who knew her will know that Hannah was a diamond in a sea of stars. Bright, beautiful and always shining. “While swimming with them she often said, if anything ever happened she would save them. I have no doubt that the Irish, Latina fire that burns in her soul kept that spirited determination alive.” Timeline of the Bayesian luxury yacht disaster in Sicily: Monday 19 - Wednesday 21 August Monday 19 August The Bayesian yacht, flying a British flag, sinks at around 5am local time when the area was hit by a tornado. Fifteen people are rescued from the 55m (180ft) vessel – including a mother and baby – but another seven remain missing. A body, believed to be that of a chef on the boat, is later found near the wreck. Tuesday 20 August The search continues for the six tourists missing. It is reported that among those missing are Morgan Stanley International bank chairman Jonathan Bloomer; his wife, Judy Bloomer; Clifford Chance lawyer Chris Morvillo; and his wife, Neda Morvillo. Police divers try to reach the hull of the ship, resting at a depth of 50 metres. Italy’s fire brigade Vigili del Fuoco say early inspections of the wreck were “unsuccessful” because of limited access to the bridge and furniture obstructing passages. Wednesday 21 August The search for the six people unaccounted for enters a third day, with crews carrying out inspections of the yacht’s internal hull. A team of four British inspectors from the Marine Accident Investigation Branch (MAIB) arrive in Porticello to look at the site of the sinking. Five bodies are found inside the yacht on Wednesday afternoon. Only four of them are brought to shore. Body bags are seen being taken to the port of Porticello in the afternoon where dozens of emergency services staff wait. Watch: Final moments of seven who died in Bayesian tragedy revealed by fire service boss Final moments of seven who died in Bayesian tragedy revealed by fire service boss How long will it take to recover the sailing vessel? Mr Macauda could not confirm how long it would take to retrieve the shipwreck of the sunken yacht. “Everything depends on the availability of the owners and the timeframe of the retrieval of the wreck and of course all that has to be submitted to the port authorities and in parallel of course there will be the inquiry results and it’s only really then that we will be able to authorise the operation,” he said, according to a BBC translation. “I can’t say, like some experts who have already spoken on the subject, that it will be eight weeks.” He made clear that the owners will bear the full cost of retrieval, although he could not estimate the figure. Why were nearby vessels not similarly affected? Another yacht, the Sir Robert BP, was about 150 to 200 metres from the Bayesian when extreme weather hit. Its crew helped to rescue 15 people from the stricken vessel. Italian officials said they would be looking at how the downburst could affect one vehicle and not other nearby vessels. Why did the boat sink? The vessel had been deemed “unsinkable” by its manufacturer – Italian shipyard Perini Navi. The Bayesian was hit by a downburst, according to Mr Cammarano, which are powerful winds that descend from a thunderstorm and spread out quickly once they hit the ground. Pictured: Bayesian superyacht Watch: who is mike lynch, the billionaire tech entrepreneur. Why were several of the passengers in one cabin? The press conference heard several bodies onboard the sunken yacht were found in a single cabin which was not theirs. Mr Cammarano said investigators currently do not know the reason for them being discovered in the same cabin. The chief of the Palermo fire service, Bentivoglio Fiandra, said the yacht pinned to the right and suggested people tried to go on the other side, taking refuge in cabins in the higher part of the wreck. Why weren’t passengers who remained on board the vessel warned about escaping from the yacht? The prosecutor in charge of the case, Raffaele Cammarano, suggested that some passengers may have been asleep when others were awake. Asked why they were not woken up or alerted, he said that is something investigators are trying to work out from the statements of the survivors. He called it an “essential” part of the inquiry. Video: Italian prosecutor announces manslaughter investigation over Mike Lynch yacht sinking Italian prosecutor announces manslaughter investigation over Mike Lynch yacht sinking Uncertainty over how long it will take to retrieve shipwreck, officials say Key questions for investigators of the Bayesian yacht tragedy in Sicily What weather warnings was the Bayesian alerted to? Passengers were asleep and therefore unable to escape, prosecutors say The passengers who died were probably asleep, prosecutors said, and this is the reason they failed to escape. Raffaele Cammarano, the prosecutor of the case, suggested “they were asleep whereas the others weren’t”. He was asked if there was anyone at the time available to alert them. Mr Cammarano said: “That is precisely what we are trying to ascertain from the statements made during the interrogation of the survivors – an essential point in the inquiry obviously.” Watch: Mike Lynch’s friend mourns ‘unbelievably tragic’ death after fraud trial acquittal Prosecutor says bayesian incident is a ‘very grave tragedy'. A top prosecutor in Sicily outlined the order in which the bodies of six people who had been missing following the yacht sinking were retrieved, calling the incident a “very grave tragedy”. Speaking at a press conference on Saturday, public prosecutor Ambrogio Cartosio said: “These six persons who tried desperately to save themselves were finally retrieved. “First of all, four of them. Jonathan Bloomer the banker, Christopher Morvillo the lawyer, and all four of them were retrieved from inside the yacht which was 50 metres down. “Then, later, the other two were also retrieved. “Michael Lynch on the 23rd, yesterday, and then the 18-year-old daughter of Michael Lynch, Hannah, was found yesterday morning. “It is a very grave tragedy and in order to reduce the dimensions of the tragedy, we have called upon the co-operation of the firefighters, firefighting divers, who have shown incredible courage and skill, who carried out a very difficult mission indeed and have allowed us to inspect properly the wreck for bodies.” ICYMI: Bodies were recovered from cabins on the left side of the yacht The bodies of six people were recovered from cabins on the left side of the yacht after it had sunk, the chief of the Palermo fire service said. Girolamo Bentivoglio said specialised divers attempting to retrieve the bodies had to deal with “very little visibility due to the weather conditions” and were called in from across the country as part of a search-and-rescue operation which involved “some 70 people” each day. He added: “The yacht obviously pinned to the right and obviously the (people) tried to go on the other side and then took refuge in their cabins. “We found four or five bodies in the cabin on the left and there was another one in the third cabin on the left too, and obviously they were in the higher part of the wreck. “Obviously, emergency procedures were implemented by the divers and obviously we installed cameras and involved further divers. “And we involved obviously helicopter services and other surveillance cameras.” Watch: Manslaughter investigation launched into Mike Lynch yacht deaths Daughter of mike lynch recovered from yacht as family ‘devastated’ after five-day search. Mike Lynch’s daughter recovered as family ‘devastated’ after five-day search No autopsies have been carried out yet It is ‘probable’ that offences were committed, prosecutor says, italian officials currently cannot say when the first distress signal was launched. Maritime director of western Sicily Rear Admiral Raffaele Macauda, said: “It is normal when there is imminent danger to send distress signals – that is what alerted the port authorities to come to the scene. “It may be that there was an error in manipulation given the speed of events and it meant that an emergency distress signal was not launched properly or at the right time. “We can’t reconstruct all these details, I’m afraid at the moment. “We can’t say exactly at what time the first distress signal was launched.” He also said “the owners will bear the full cost of the retrieval” of the wreckage and could not estimate how much it would cost. The passengers who died were probably asleep, prosecutors said, and this is the reason they failed to escape.  We have no idea why five bodies were found in same cabin, prosecution says All of the bodies onboard the sunken yacht were found in a single cabin which “was not theirs”, a prosecutor told reporters. Prosecutor Raffaele Cammarano said, through a translation provided by the BBC: “The bodies were found in a cabin which was not theirs but this doesn’t give us any kind of certainty about what happened. “We have no idea of the reasons for their all being found in the same cabin.” Open Gallery TOP FIVE II Yacht Charter Motor Boat Size / Year Built / Builder Other specifications Beam 10.80 Metres Draft 3.33 Metres Type Motor Boat Accommodations Deck jacuzzi, air conditioning, deck shower, hair dryers, wheelchair access, stabilizers, onboard entertainment, salon tv/dvd, salon stereo/music, board games, gym equipment, water entertainment, wave runners, kayaks - 1 man, beach games, fishing gear, under water camera, under water video, stand-up paddle, sea scooters, swim platform, fishing gear type, scuba diving, license info, air compressor, technical details, cruising speed, communications, charter types, special diets, kosher diets, gay charters, nudist charters, crew smokes, pets onboard, guest pets allowed, children allowed, nationality. How did the superyacht carrying tech tycoon Mike Lynch sink off Sicily? Lynch’s was among five bodies retrieved by divers on Wednesday after the Bayesian sank, according to reports. Five bodies were retrieved on Wednesday, and a sixth on Friday , by divers searching for those missing from the superyacht which sank off the Sicilian coast in the Mediterranean. The bodies found include British tech tycoon Mike Lynch , the UK’s Telegraph reported. The bodies have not been formally identified by the authorities yet. It is understood that they were retrieved from inside the sunken yacht, which is reported to be lying on its side on the sea bed at a depth of 50 metres Keep reading One dead, six missing after luxury superyacht capsizes off sicily coast, luxury yacht sinks off sicilian coast, uk extradites autonomy co-founder mike lynch to us, how serious are the wildfires near athens, greece. This brings the total death toll to seven; one person, reported to be the chef from the yacht, was confirmed dead on Monday. The yacht capsized on Monday at about 5am (03:00 GMT) after it was hit by stormy weather caused by a “waterspout” – or mini tornado – according to Italian authorities. The cruise had reportedly been undertaken to celebrate the acquittal of Lynch in a fraud trial in the United States in June. His co-defendant in the trial, Steve Chamberlain, who was also acquitted in June, was killed after being hit by a car on Saturday. Here’s what is known so far about the yacht, those on board and who died or were still missing after it sank. Who was on the superyacht which sank? According to the Italian coastguard, the 56-metre-long (184 feet) British-flagged yacht, called the Bayesian, was carrying 22 people, including 10 crew members. One person has been confirmed dead after rescuers located a body on Monday at a depth of about 50 metres (164 feet), the AFP news agency reported. Officials have not yet given the name of the deceased but Italian media reported that he was the yacht’s chef. AFP reported on Tuesday that divers had spotted a second body inside the sunk boat, quoting a source close to the search operation. Authorities have not confirmed it yet, though. While not all the names of the six missing passengers were not made public officially, they were understood to include: Mike Lynch, 59, a British-Irish technology businessman who co-founded British tech company Autonomy in 1996 and was once likened to Microsoft founder Bill Gates; he earned a PhD from Cambridge University Hannah Lynch, 18, Mike’s daughter, who had just completed her final school exams and was due to begin a degree in English at the University of Oxford this September Jonathan Bloomer, the 70-year-old British chairman of Morgan Stanley bank and the Hiscox insurance company, was confirmed as missing by Hiscox CEO Aki Hussain Judy Bloomer, Jonathan’s wife, was also confirmed as missing by Hussain Chris Morvillo, from British international law firm Clifford Chance, was confirmed to be missing by Salvatore Cocina, head of the Civil Protection in Sicily Fifteen people, including Lynch’s wife, Angela Bacares, were rescued. Among others rescued were Charlotte Golunski, 36, a board director at Luminance, a software startup founded by Lynch; her husband, James; and their one-year-old daughter, Sophie. Golunski is understood to have kept her daughter alive by holding her above her head while she was in the water. All those rescued are in stable condition, although eight of them have been hospitalised, according to Italian news agency Adnkronos. What do we know about the Bayesian? Italian shipbuilder Perini Navi constructed the superyacht in 2008 and refitted it in 2020, according to the company’s website. The yacht’s owner is listed as Revtom Limited, a firm solely owned by Lynch’s wife, Bacares, according to company documents seen by the Reuters news agency. It was formerly called Salute but was renamed Bayesian after Lynch’s PhD thesis and his software that earned him a fortune. Both of these were based on the statistical Bayesian theory, championed by mathematician Thomas Bayes. Where was the Bayesian last seen and where was it going? The Bayesian was last located on Sunday evening in the Tyrrhenian Sea, east of the harbour at Porticello, according to ship tracking websites Vessel Finder and Marine Traffic. Porticello is a port city located near the Sicilian capital, Palermo. The yacht had departed on August 14 from the Sicilian port of Milazzo. Its destination was reported to be the Italian city of Bagheria by the tracking websites. Did a waterspout cause the yacht to sink? Italian authorities reported that the stormy conditions that caused the yacht to sink were triggered by a waterspout. A waterspout is a rotating column of whirling air and water mist – sometimes referred to as a mini tornado – according to the website of the US National Ocean Service. The website adds that a tornadic waterspout is a tornado that forms over water or moves from land to water. They are similar to land tornadoes and can occur during thunderstorms. Who is Stephen Chamberlain and how is he connected to this case? Chamberlain, 52, was Lynch’s co-defendant in a fraud trial in San Francisco, which saw both men acquitted in June. Chamberlain died in a hospital from injuries sustained when he was hit by a car while out running in Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom, on Saturday. His death was confirmed by his lawyer Gary Lincenberg in a statement on Monday. The fraud case related to Hewlett Packard’s $11bn acquisition of Autonomy, the firm Lynch grew into the UK’s leading tech company before it spectacularly unravelled after being bought by HP in 2011. Lynch was extradited to the US in May 2023 and he spent more than a year under house arrest before his acquittal. Chamberlain was the former vice president of finance at Autonomy. The yacht trip was supposedly a celebration of Lynch’s acquittal. How did the rescue operation unfold? Specialist divers began a search anew for the six missing people on Tuesday. Three divers, equipped with oxygen cylinders, descended beneath the surface to examine the wreck. They initially faced difficulty accessing the yacht’s chambers because they were constricted by furniture. An investigation into the wreck has been opened by prosecutors in the nearby Sicilian town of Termini Imerese. What have survivors and witnesses said about the incident? “It was terrible. The boat was hit by really strong wind and shortly after it went down,” survivor Golunski told the ANSA news agency. She added that she had lost hold of her one-year-old daughter in the water for “two seconds”, but then managed to grab her and hold her up over the waves until a lifeboat inflated and they were both pulled to safety. She reported that people were screaming. Karsten Borner, a captain of a nearby yacht who witnessed the sinking, said he had turned on the engine of his ship to prevent collision with the Bayesian. “We managed to keep the ship in position and after the storm was over, we noticed that the ship behind us was gone,” he told reporters. Bloomer’s wife, Judy, is a trustee of the Eve Appeal, a UK-based gynaecological cancer research charity. Athena Lamnisos, the CEO of the Eve Appeal, was quoted by the BBC saying she was “deeply shocked to hear the news that our very dear friend and her husband Jonathan, are among those missing”. Divers Recover 5 Bodies From Wrecked Superyacht off Sicily; 1 Still Missing Divers searching the wreck of a superyacht that sank off Sicily have found five bodies and searched for a sixth as questions intensified about why the sailboat sank so quickly Salvatore Cavalli Italian firefighter scuba divers bring ashore, in the green bag, the body of one of the victims from the British-flagged vessel Bayesian, Wednesday, Aug. 21, 2024. The yacht was hit by a violent sudden storm and sank early Monday, while at anchor off the Sicilian village of Porticello near Palermo, in southern Italy. (AP Photo/Salvatore Cavalli) PORTICELLO, Sicily (AP) — Divers searching the wreck of a superyacht that sank off Sicily found the bodies of five passengers Wednesday, leaving one still missing as questions intensified about why the vessel sank so quickly when a nearby sailboat remained largely unscathed. Rescue crews brought four body bags ashore at Porticello. Salvatore Cocina, head of the Sicily civil protection agency, said a fifth body had been located. Divers on-scene said they would try to recover it on Thursday while continuing the search for the sixth. The discovery made clear the operation to search the hull on the seabed 50 meters (164 feet) underwater had quickly turned into a recovery one, not a rescue, given the amount of time that had passed and with no signs of life over three days of searching. The Bayesian, a 56-meter (184-foot) British-flagged yacht, went down in a storm early Monday as it was moored about a kilometer (a half-mile) offshore. Civil protection officials said they believed the ship was struck by a tornado over the water, known as a waterspout. Fifteen people escaped in a lifeboat and were rescued by a nearby sailboat. The body of the ship's chef, Recaldo Thomas of Antigua, was recovered Monday. Thomas was born in Canada, according to his cousin David Isaac, but visited his parents’ homeland of Antigua as a child, and moved permanently to the tiny eastern Caribbean island in his early 20s. Italian officials previously listed Antigua and Canada as the nationality of people on board. The fate of six missing passengers had driven the search effort, including British tech magnate Mike Lynch , his 18-year-old daughter and associates who had successfully defended him in a recent U.S. federal fraud trial. Lynch’s spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment Wednesday. Meanwhile, Termini Imerese Public Prosecutor’s Office investigators were acquiring evidence for their criminal investigation, which they opened immediately after the tragedy despite no formal suspects having been publicly identified. Questions have abounded about what caused the superyacht, built in 2008 by Italian shipyard Perini Navi, to rapidly sink, when the nearby Sir Robert Baden Powell sailboat was largely spared and managed to rescue the survivors. Giovanni Costantino, head of The Italian Sea Group, which owns the ship maker, blamed human error for the disaster, which he said took 16 minutes. “The ship sank because it took on water. From where, the investigators will say,” he told RAI state television after he met with prosecutors. Costantino cited AIS ship tracking data which he said showed the Bayesian had taken on water for four minutes when a sudden gust of wind flipped it and it continued taking on water. The ship straightened up slightly and then went down, he said. But was it merely the case of a freak waterspout that knocked the ship to its side and allowed water to pour in through open hatches? What was the position of the keel, which on a large sailboat like the Bayesian might have been retractable to allow it to enter shallower ports? “There’s a lot of uncertainty as to whether it had a lifting keel and whether it might have been up,” said Jean-Baptiste Souppez, a fellow of the Royal Institute of Naval Architects and the editor of the Journal of Sailing Technology. “But if it had, then that would reduce the amount of stability that the vessel had, and therefore made it easier for it to roll over on its side,” he said in an interview. The captain of the sailboat that rescued survivors said his craft sustained minimal damage — the frame of a sun awning broke — even with winds that he estimated reached 12 on the Beaufort wind scale, which is the highest hurricane-strength force on the scale. He said he had remained anchored with his engines running to try to maintain the ship’s position as the forecast storm rolled in. “Another possibility is to heave anchor before the storm and to run downwind at open sea,” Karsten Borner said in a text message. But he said that might not have been possible for the Bayesian, given its trademark 75-meter (246-foot) tall mast. “If there was a stability problem, caused by the extremely tall mast, it would not have been better at open sea,” he said. Yachts like the Bayesian are required to have watertight, sub-compartments that are specifically designed to prevent a rapid, catastrophic sinking even when some parts fill with water. The underwater search continued in dangerous and time-consuming conditions. Because of the wreck’s depth, which requires special precautions, divers working in pairs could only spend about 12 minutes at a time searching, though reinforcements outfitted with special equipment to enable longer dives were on the wreck Wednesday. In all, some 27 divers took rotations, including four who helped with recovery after the 2012 Costa Concordia disaster off Tuscany. They called the Porticello wreck a “little Concordia,” fire crews said in a statement. The limited dive time was aimed in part at avoiding decompression sickness, also known as the “bends,” which can occur when divers stay underwater for long periods and ascend too quickly, allowing nitrogen gas dissolved in the blood to form bubbles. “The longer you stay, the slower your ascent has to be,” said Simon Rogerson, the editor of SCUBA magazine. He said the tight turnaround time suggested the operation's managers were trying to limit the risks and recovery time after each dive. “It sounds like they’re operating essentially on no decompression or very tight decompression, or they’re being extremely conservative,” he said. Divers were also working with debris floating around them, limited visibility and air tanks on their backs. “We are trying to advance in tight spaces, but any single thing slows us down,” said Luca Cari, spokesman for the fire rescue service. “An electric panel could set us back for five hours. These aren’t normal conditions. We’re at the limit of possibility.” Winfield reported from Rome and Kirka from London.
