The British-flagged Bayesian, a 56-metre-long superyacht carrying 22 passengers and crew, was anchored off the port of Porticello, near Palermo, when it capsized and sank on Monday within minutes of being struck by a pre-dawn storm. A judicial investigation has been opened into the sinking, which has baffled naval marine experts, who say a boat like the Bayesian, built by Italian high-end yacht manufacturer Perini, should have withstood the storm.
Pulling the wreck out of the sea, where it is now lying on its right side, apparently intact, at a depth of about 50 metres , may help investigators determine what happened to it, but the operation is likely to be complex and costly.
