Superyacht: How passengers on Bayesian died



Superyacht: How passengers on Bayesian died

A banking boss and his wife, who died when a superyacht sank off the coast of Sicily, suffocated to death in an air bubble as oxygen ran out, according to Italian media.

Jonathan Bloomer and his wife Judy were two of the seven people who died when the Bayesian superyacht sank last month.

The pair were on the trip with British tech entrepreneur Mike Lynch to celebrate him being cleared of fraud charges in June in the US, when a violent storm hit.

  1. I am mainly concerned with the people who died on the yacht.

    But I am also interested in the technology because I am an engineer and designer and I also own a steel sailing ship that I would like to modify for the Atlantic crossing. However, I still need a little money to continue my project.

    I am looking for the reasons behind the sinking and why the yacht, which was dubbed "unsinkable", was able to sink so quickly.

    My motivation came from looking at the photos of the people who died and could only see positive, human things in them.

    The situation is completely different with Bill Gates and his inhumanity.

  2. I feel very sorry for all the people on the yacht Bayesian and their families.

    The fact is:

    A highly upgraded super sailing yacht with a mast and a lifting keel sank in a storm while anchored.

    In the dark of night, within just a few minutes.

    300m off the coast.

    7 people died.

    10 people survived.

    9 people witnessed the incident directly, what do they say?

    The cause of the accident is still completely unclear and lies in the dark seabed.

    I am an engineer and I am also a designer.

    I learned a trade at a shipyard in Hamburg.

    I worked as an engineer in aircraft construction in Hamburg for 38 years.

    I love sailing ships, blue-water ships, cruising ships for crossing the Atlantic and Pacific.

    I don't like the sailing yacht Bayesian, why?

    I want to outline this here:

    My eye and my feeling say that the design of the yacht is disproportionate.

    1. It is a very fast yacht, not a cruising yacht for relaxed driving (racing yacht).

    2. The hull is very long in relation to its small width, the volume is smaller.

    3. The hull lies deep in the water; the side height when tilted is therefore lower, less buoyancy.

    4. Only one mast, which is very long and voluminous, and has a large lateral wind attack surface. The mast has a lot of weight over the hull, which shifts the center of gravity upwards and reduces the tipping stability, the yacht tilts more quickly in the wind.

    5. The yacht requires a special crew for this type of construction. Personally, I would not design, build or buy a yacht like this, even if I had the money. As the owner/captain of such an exposed yacht, I would have to stay awake and be very attentive at all times so that no mistakes are made that could lead to a catastrophe. That would be too stressful for me.

    The Bayesian must be salvaged urgently so that the cause of the accident can be clearly determined. That is the least we can do for the victims, their families and all those affected.

  3. Who knows the missing names of the crew of the yacht Bayesian?

    Bloomer, Jonathan

    Bloomer, Judy

    Lynch, Hannah

    Lynch, Mike

    Morvillo, Christopher

    Morvillo, Neda

    Golunski, Charlotte

    19 ?

    20 ?

    21 ?

    22 ?

    Who knows more?

  4. All that cash and just the simple idea of having a smash glass hammer and / or 10 minute oxgen mini canister in every room never acurred to mamals who do not dominate the h2o environment.

  5. How did the captain manage to escape knowing that passengers were still on the yacht, surely he has got to be held responsible and why did he not warn everybody and tell them to don their life belts and even radio for help because of incoming storm. Sorry but this accident has ended up being a tragedy. Condolences to all involved.

  6. Why is it necessary to slaughter the English language with forced and totally dreadful intonation? Why can’t the ‘reporter’ speak in an unaffected way……isn’t the story of the tragic loss of this vessel and the poor souls onboard who perished bad enough without destroying the spoken word!!

  7. Maybe they should stop pointing fingers at the captain and crew and maybe more to rescue protocol’s, if divers would have gone down at soon as possible, just maybe the outcome would have been different.

  8. Each language has its beauty. But, I feel this style of English speaking very stressful, with each syllable and word stressed. Need a lot of energy to speak in this manner. (No offense meant)

  9. I just wonder what mankind doing under the Sun like
    Ecclesiastes 6:1-2 said : There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is heavy upon men:
    a man to whom God giveth riches, wealth, and honor, so that he lacketh nothing for his soul of all that he desireth, yet God giveth him not power to eat thereof, but an alien eateth it; this is vanity, and it is an evil disease.

  10. Based on the BBC version, Mike Lynch was one of those guys who had a 6th sense for business, always in the right place at the right time. He hinted at his demise, gathering his team for collateral yet it was all for naught with his private security in absentia

  11. Nobody can belive this story, may the was suffocated before, but nobody can belive that they was suffocated each one in his cabins by a air buble, maybe somebody put a plastic back on the heads and after he or they sank the ship to erase the traces

  12. Il serait peut-être intéressant de penser à mesurer la longueur du mouillage. Même par 50 m de fond , celle ci doit être dans l’état . La position de l’ancre n’a même vraisemblablement pas changer . Le rapport taille poids de l’ancre longueur et poids de chaîne et longueur totale du mouillage peut être un piège mortel, surtout en Méditerranée où l’absence de marée peut faire oublier des règles élémentaires de mouillage au corps mort ou à l’ancre. ?? Sans parler d’un éventuel double mouillage proue et poupe mais la qd même !!!
