The chaotic escape efforts involved 12 passengers and 10 crew members, with survivors managing to cling to floating debris and a life raft deployed by the chief officer.

Rescue efforts were initiated after a flare was fired by a crew member, leading to the nearby vessel Sir Robert Baden Powell rescuing some survivors, but tragically, six passengers and the chef were lost.

Despite Lynch's recent acquittal in the U.S., Hewlett Packard Enterprise plans to pursue a $4 billion damages claim against his estate, emphasizing the claim's importance to shareholders.

A parallel criminal investigation is underway, focusing on the skipper and chief engineer for potential manslaughter and negligence, although no formal charges have yet been filed.

During the incident, a 39-year-old Dutch diver named Huijben died while preparing to cut the yacht's mainmast, prompting further investigations into the circumstances of his death.

An interim report by the UK's Marine Accident Investigation Branch (MAIB) has attributed the tragic sinking of the yacht Bayesian to extreme winds, resulting in the deaths of tech tycoon Mike Lynch, his daughter, and five others.

The luxury vessel is currently located 49 meters underwater, and recovery operations, which have faced multiple delays, are expected to be completed by mid-June 2025.

The final report on the incident will include additional details about escape routes and onboard activities, and is anticipated to be published within 12 months.

Initial findings indicate that a downburst, caused by powerful descending winds from a thunderstorm, is likely responsible for the yacht's sinking.

The yacht, measuring 184 feet with a 237-foot mast, became irrecoverable once it tilted beyond 70 degrees, leading to injuries among passengers and crew.

Investigators are scrutinizing the actions of the yacht's captain and crew, with allegations suggesting they ignored storm warnings and prioritized their own safety.
