Re: Sicily Bayesian Yacht Sinking
An interim report by the UK’s Marine Accident Investigation Branch (MAIB), released on May 15, 2025, detailed that the yacht was hit by extreme winds exceeding 63.4 knots (117 km/h), causing it to tip beyond 70 degrees and sink within 16 minutes. The report highlighted that the yacht’s retractable keel was not fully extended, reducing stability, and open hatches likely allowed water to flood the vessel rapidly. Italian authorities continue to investigate potential manslaughter charges against the captain, James Cutfield, and two British crew members, focusing on whether safety measures were adequately followed. A tragic incident during salvage operations saw a Dutch diver killed on May 9, 2025, reportedly due to an explosion from an underwater cutting torch. The MAIB’s final report is expected later in 2025, aiming to provide further clarity on escape routes and survivability factors. |
