Lynch, Morgan Stanley boss and other yacht passengers feared dead, coast guard says

World europe.

Six guests and nine crew were rescued from the Bayesian yacht

London: British tech entrepreneur Mike Lynch and Morgan Stanley International chairman Jonathan Bloomer are among those feared dead aboard the sunken wreckage of a luxury yacht off the coast of Sicily, following a statement from the Italian coastguard.

“Never say never is our motto,” Vincenzo Zagarola, spokesperson for the Italian Coast Guard, said.

“But, at this point, it would be reasonable to think that we are more likely to find the missing people inside the boat.”

Zagarola added that the search for the six missing people would continue, with the help of military ships and helicopters. In a separate interview with the PA news agency when asked if the passengers would be found alive, he said “reasonably the answer should be not.”

• Search continues for two missing footballers in northern Morocco
• Morgan Stanley boss, his wife among missing in yacht disaster as fresh search for 6 launched

What is fate of 22 people aboard capsized yacht?

Six guests and nine crew were rescued from the Bayesian yacht, which sank after a tornado struck the vessel near Porticello, Sicily on Monday. Lynch and his family were celebrating his recent acquittal from fraud charges with a small group of advisers when the violent storm hit.

The head of the civil protection agency in Sicily, Salvo Cocina, said in a message to Bloomberg earlier on Tuesday that the six missing passengers are Bloomer and his wife Judy, Clifford Chance partner Chris Morvillo and his wife Neda, as well as Lynch and his daughter Hannah.

Lynch, 59, had been seeking to restore his reputation as one of Europe’s most successful entrepreneurs. For years, he’d argued that he had been scapegoated over the $11 billion acquisition of his software company, Autonomy Corp., by Hewlett Packard Co. in 2011. A year later, HP wrote down $8.8 billion of the purchase price and publicly accused Lynch of fraud.

Italian authorities have already begun a probe into the sinking. The UK’s Marine Accident Investigation Branch, which investigates marine accidents involving British vessels worldwide, has sent four inspectors to Sicily to conduct a preliminary assessment, according to a spokesperson for the Department for Transport. They will speak to the local authorities and emergency service crews to determine whether they need to launch an investigation.

One man died and six people were missing, including British tech entrepreneur Mike Lynch, after a luxury yacht was struck by an unexpectedly violent storm and sank off the Sicilian capital Palermo early on Monday.

The 56-metre-long (184-ft) sailboat was identified as the British-registered Bayesian and sank with 22 people on board shortly before sunrise, the Italian coast guard said in a statement.

The names of the dead and missing were not immediately released, but a person familiar with the rescue operation confirmed that Lynch was not accounted for. The Italian coast guard said the missing had British, American and Canadian nationality.

The 15 people rescued included a one-year-old child.

"The wind was very strong. Bad weather was expected, but not of this magnitude," a coast guard official in Palermo told Reuters.

Storms and heavy rainfall have swept down Italy in recent days - with floods and landslides causing major damage in the north of the country - after weeks of scorching heat.

Eight of those rescued were transferred to local hospitals. All were in stable condition, local media reported.

The captain of a nearby boat told Reuters that when the storm hit he had turned the engine on to keep control of the vessel and avoid a collision with the Bayesian.

"We managed to keep the ship in position and after the storm was over, we noticed that the ship behind us was gone," Karsten Borner told journalists.

The other boat "went flat on the water, and then down," he added.

He said his crew then found some of the survivors on a life raft - including three who were seriously injured, and a baby girl and her mother - and took them on board before the coast guard picked them up.

Lynch, aged 59, is known as Britain's Bill Gates and is one of the country's best-known tech entrepreneurs.

He was acquitted in June by a jury in San Francisco of fraud charges linked to the sale of his software company, Autonomy, to Hewlett-Packard for $11 billion in 2011.

He said at the time that he was "elated" to be cleared in the criminal trial in which he denied any wrongdoing and blamed HP for botching the integration of the two companies.

Divers inspect wreck

The coast guard said divers were inspecting the wreck, at a depth of 49 metres.

Prosecutors in the nearby town of Termini Imerese have opened an investigation to look into what had gone wrong.

The Bayesian was built by Italian shipbuilder Perini in 2008 and was last refitted in 2020, and was managed by yachting company Camper & Nicholsons.

It won a string of awards for its design and can accommodate up to 12 guests in six suites and a crew of 10, according to online specialist yacht sites.

It was not immediately clear who owned the boat, however, the yacht's name would resonate with Lynch because his Phd thesis and the software that made his fortune was based on Bayesian theory.

The yacht was formerly known as Salute, or health in Italian. Its 75-metre mast is the tallest aluminium mast in the world, Perini said on its website.

The boat left the Sicilian port of Milazzo on Aug. 14 and was last tracked east of Palermo on Sunday evening, with a navigation status of "at anchor", according to vessel tracking app Vesselfinder.

A U.K. foreign ministry spokesperson said British officials were in contact with local authorities over the incident and were ready to provide consular support for Britons who were affected.

Exceptional service and experiences.

We rented the boat on sat dec 3 and since the first contact we found good service, fast responses and flexibility. We were a group of 12 and space was just right. Smaller groups would well enjoy this trip too. The experience started on pier 18 with captain Alvin who managed the boat and timing perfectly to ensures due views and photos during the ride

Honestly one of the most amazing cruising experiences I have ever had. Well maintained and clean yacht, super friendly staff and quite easy on the pocket if you’re 5 - 10 people. Will definitely visit again.

We booked the two hour boat trip yesterday and it was one of the best boat experiences I’ve ever ever went on. The views were unbelievable the staff was incredibly friendly, they even brought out some juice and snacks. I would definitely recommend booking with Gallivant Yacht.
