Why did the Bayesian superyacht sink?



Why did the Bayesian superyacht sink?

The Bayesian, which capsized in the early hours of Monday, was an award-winning yacht owned by a company controlled by the wife of tech tycoon Mike Lynch.

Sky’s Laura Bundock assesses why it could have sank.

  1. It sank because it was carrying a two tons of gold and silver bullion that were headed to a Swiss bank, so that an unnamed tycoon could avoid paying taxes on his ill-gotten gains. Happens all the time, but the tornado messed up the plan.

  2. While on a sea exercise as a sea cadet we were ordered on deck as a storm broke and lashed down by rope on the hardtop of the galley, directly in front of bridge so captain could have eyes on and count every 15 minutes to ensure non of us 15 cadets had washed overboard. 9 hours in a Beaufort 11 perfect storm on a training tug boat . We survived😮

  3. Bayesian – all the hallmarks of a professional playbook hit – as in sabotage: a couple of unseen divers place 2-3 timed or remote-control small IEDs on one side of yacht just below the water-line. This explains why the yacht titled so rapidly and "inexplicably" to one side as water rushed into one side of the yacht. The targets were obviously Mike Lynch, his family and his close associates at his scandal-plagued company "Autonomy" – so I'll logically assume that their cabins were very swiftly located by the unseen hit-team (in the dead of night) and the targets chloroformed(or similar – see list below). Mike Lynch's wife who survived has yet to explain how/why she survived yet her young, fit, strong daughter and her husband did not. And a standard playbook blame-shifting investigation and media cover-up/silence is underway as expected.
    PS. Oh yes – unlike most people let's not forget that Mike Lynch's close associate at Autonomy Stephen Chamberlain was hit and killed by a car just a few days before the yacht sank/was sunk.

  4. The Bayesian is an extreme design that did not prioritize seaworthiness. Billionaire's hubris was the main design element and that is why it sunk. I can't imagine an ocean sailing yacht that can't survive a 90 degree knockdown.
