Resignation of a sunk $ 30 million Bayyesian yacht to be reviewed

The remains of the Baysovo Superch are already on dry land in Sicily after being raised from the seabed and being on a slow last trip from the place where last summer sank into a storm, killing seven passengers and crew.

The yacht belonging to British technology entrepreneur Mike Lynch has finally been restored to a complex Operation of $ 30 million (£ 22 million) to allow Italian prosecutors to check the remains as part of their current investigation.

G -n Lynch and his teenage daughter were among seven passengers and a crew who died when Baysovsky was knocked down by sudden extreme winds and sank within minutes.

Their bodies were extracted from divers a few days later.

Other smaller ships in the same area on that day survived the storm intact, leaving the experts who struggled to understand why the luxury yacht was affected so badly.

At that time, prosecutors in Sicily announced a criminal investigation into a potential murder and negligent shipwreck, describing his result as “completely unpredictable”.

They clarified that the restoration of Baiesov himself would be essential.

Now the yacht is out of the water, prosecutors experts will be able to look at the physical evidence and start inventing some answers.

The rescue operation began in May, but was quickly struck by fresh disasters when one of the divers was killed in an underwater explosion.

The whole operation involving dozens of experts had to be stopped.

The diving team was then replaced by remotely controlled secrets for safety, slowing down the process.

Fixing the straps around the housing or the main body of the vessel was also tougher than expected.

But last week, the Rescue team, run by TMC Maritime, finally cut off the giant, 72m aluminum mast from the yacht, allowing the body to be transferred under water.

Its 50 m on the surface was a delicate three -day work with regular checks for any fuel spills or other pollution.

Prosecutors wanted the remains of the supermarket to be preserved as possible as possible.

It was not until Sunday, hanging from a giant floating faucet with multiple straps under its belly, the Baysovsky was ready to be transferred 16 km (10 miles) or more to the shore.

On Monday morning, he was launched into a metal swing at the port of Termini Imerase, where the remains that are already gray and battered will be left to dry before an official inspection or criminalist tests are held.

Meanwhile, the rescue teams will extract the giant mast and the seaflooring from the seabed and will make a final cleaning for any other materials that can help in the investigation.

Lynch, a technology entrepreneur, sometimes called the UK Bill Gates, was justified last summer by allegations of fraud in the United States and the journey around Sicily with family and friends was planned as a celebration.

In the early hours of August 19, his luxury yacht was anchored right on the shore near the port of Porticelo when the storm struck.

There have been endless speculation why the Bayesovsky has been sinking since then: whether the doors are closed in time and what other steps the crew took and how fast.

Three crew members, including the captain, are under investigation.

But the prosecution’s Italian team remained firm for their work. Last year, in their only comments they need to press, they said they would investigate whether the accident was due to human mistakes or potential shortcomings of the yacht design.

“Only after analysis of the remains will we understand what happened, where the water came in, whether there was enough water to make the ship sink, or whether any other factor was involved,” prosecutor Rafael Kamarano at that time.

The temporary report last month from British naval investigators Mayb found that the Baysovsky – with its huge single mast – is vulnerable to very strong wind speeds.

The report suggests that neither the owner who is not the crew was not aware of it.

The statements given to its authors also suggest that all the respective hatches and doors were closed until the storm was built.

The report was conducted for safety purposes – avoiding future disasters at sea – not for prosecution.

Now that Baiesovsky is brought to the shore, Maib experts will also access “Check and refine this information,” BBC told the BBC and “think about all the factors that may have contributed … about the accident.”

The lawyers representing some of the killed describe this as the “most critical phase” of the investigation.

“Finally, we will be able to see in which parts of the boat they allowed water, causing it to sink,” a lawyer acting for the BBC’s family of Baysov’s chef, said Thomas.

“We can see which hatches were open or closed, or any other entry points for the water.”

He said the remains would provide “first real evidence” to prosecutors.

As another lawyer said, these prosecutors now need to understand “how exactly this could happen on such an incredible boat.”
