This has the hallmark of human error, not having the retractable keel deployed. In a normal state, this would be a sound practice as she could easily rotate on it’s anchored position into the wind.

The crew mostly got out the guests mostly drowned, something wrong here ! It was a mistake to retract the keel because this raises the centre of gravity so once the yacht heels away from vertical the leverage of the mast increases exponentially with each degree of list and there is no chance of recovery once water starts entering the yacht from open doors. When the mast hits water it hits with a tremendous crash and then the lights go out, the floor becomes the wall and sheer panic overwhelms the poor sods trapped below decks. It is common to retract swinging keels on yachts because the swinging action on bearings can cause a deep rumble that reverberates throughout the yacht which hampers sleep for guests, the crew soon get used to this rumble but when bad weather is due, the keel must be fully lowered no matter what guests say.

Normally most (at least fiberglass vessels) are built with floatation, which allows them to remain at the surface, even if capsized, and filled with water (not afloat, but submerged upto the deck). This is why one of the cardinal rules of safety at sea is "remain with the vessel", as the vessel is still at the surface. Why she sank and did not remain at the suface is a real mystery.

@petersmith65082 ай бұрын
It is possible that one of the furling headsails was left loosely furled and not secured properly and when the squall hit, partially unwound itself. This could have easily put the yacht on its beam ends. This would not sink the yacht by itself but it is more than likely that the lower cockpit doors were left wide open for the party, allowing the sea to flood the lower decks. The centreboard keel would almost certainly have been left raised as this is only lowered for sailing. I have seen this happen to several boats parked in marinas in my years of sailing around the Marlborough Sounds of New Zealand where strong winds are quite common.

The yacht was anchored and the retractable keel was raised and it appeared that the crew didn’t notice the approaching storm on their radar or no one was standing watch, causing the ship to be pushed by the storm while dragging its anchor until the bow went under water then quickly listing to its side and sinking. The the 67 year old schooner that was used to pull the survivors from the water was Captained by a sailor with decades of experience, who took the proper precautions when the storm was was picked up by his radar. The Bayesian was tracked by its gps system and it shows the path it was pushed until it sank in about 30 meters of water.

In such cases, in order to counteract the strong effect of the wind and not drift, the engines are started and the bow is turned against the wind. They endured a storm/small tornado for exactly 16 minutes. Most likely, the ship (boats longer than 24 meters are called ships) turned around itself approximately 180° and the ship's propeller got tangled in the anchor chain. Therefore, structural damage occurred in the aft area where the garage and engine room are located, causing a large leak, the ship started taking in water at this point. Perhaps the bulb keel also broke and a 56-meter ship sank in 60 seconds. Nothing happened to the Dutch flagged ship that was about 200 meters next to it. Strong ships of this type can only be sunk by submarine torpedoes.

The sails would be down in a storm. Therefore a storm would not affect the mast with no sail on it as very little force on it compared to it sailing with the sail up.

I've heard that the keel was in uplifted position, while at anchor. This has seriously reduced the stability (GZ length)
@CharlieWindsor-c2j2 ай бұрын
The lateral external force (wind force and wave drift force) overturned the vessel Hull beyond its angle of vanishing stability/downflooding angle pushing its righting arm from positive to negative with the keel raised, the opposing resistance to overturning, the hull stood no chance. At this point the Hull will have violently rotated i.e. pulling the Hull from upright to beyond 90 degrees position. Watertight openings may have been left opened, hence the foundering. The huge mast may have never been subjected to modelled wind forces for tornado strength winds. Certainly for hurricane force winds possibly to a 100 year return period, but not Water Spout force. As always will be chain of events, including human error. This yacht broke free from anchorage and due to waterplane shape vessel will have drifted perpendicular to wind/waves. The vessel drifted 358 metres.

snapped mast wouldnt be cut off clean, it would still be attached to the hull with the rigging and cabling. it would act as a storm anchor. The vessel would be blown sideways, the mast dragging trough the water would tilt the vessel, making it capsize...low atmospheric pressure in the spout (650mb?) could easily dislodge and suck out panoramic windows of the yacht too.

The mast was too tall and it caused the whole boat to keel over. It was a hot night and people were sleeping on the deck, and apparently the crew had left some of the doors open. The boat capsized, flooded, sank. Tragic.

I wish SKY NEWS had the comment sections available for all its other videos. We all know that their narrative wouldn't be popular though.

Better question is..... why did the yacht sink AND his co defendant get fatally hit by a car in the same 48 hours. I dont believe in coincidences of this sort.

Why? Because certain people were angry at the outcome of a certain lawsuit.

So the mast should stick out 20m above the water level if it is 73m tall and the water is 50m deep?
