Watch Mike Lynch’s tragic superyacht finally pulled from water off Sicily
Sunken British super yacht raised from seabed off coast of Sicily
A British-owned superyacht, the Bayesian, which sank off the coast of Sicily in August, has been successfully raised from the seabed by a specialist salvage team.
The sinking incident resulted in the deaths of seven out of 22 people on board, including the owner, British tech tycoon Mike Lynch, and his 18-year-old daughter.
Although freak weather was initially blamed for the sinking, naval experts have stated that the Bayesian should have been able to withstand such conditions and not sunk so rapidly.
Tragically, a diver from the specialist salvage company died in May during a preliminary recovery operation for the vessel.
