Bayesian recovery: First pieces of Mike Lynch's sunken superyacht brought to surface
- The $40 million Bayesian superyacht sank off the coast of Sicily on August 19, 2024, resulting in seven deaths including owner Mike Lynch and his daughter Hannah.
- Investigators remain divided as British experts cite structural problems, while Italian officials say no cause can be confirmed until the vessel is recovered.
- Salvage teams led by TMC Marine have recovered the boom, anchor, and a pole from the seabed, but a Dutch diver died during removal efforts in May 2025.
- An official noted the yacht’s hatches appeared open, suggesting the crew may not have secured them as the storm approached, and investigators said the crew was aware of bad weather from a posted video.
- The yacht’s hull is scheduled for recovery between May 26 and 28, weather permitting, with a full investigative report expected by summer's end to clarify the sinking's cause and circumstances.
