A £14 million super yacht sank taking on water during a waterspout; a tornado at sea is called a waterspout. The super yacht must have been anchored with two anchors, one at the bow and one at the stern. Modern super yachts are built for pleasure and not for rough sea. With a bow and stern anchor, the yacht couldn’t swing away from the wind and like most pleasure yachts she has a low stern with sliding glass doors allowing the waves to enter the cabin.

Correction - a waterspout & a tornado over water are 2 different things..Key Differences: Formation: Tornadoes over water require more significant storm systems, while waterspouts can form in much calmer conditions. Strength and Duration: Tornadoes over water are generally stronger and can last longer, especially if they started over land. Waterspouts, particularly fair weather ones, are typically weaker and shorter-lived. Appearance: Tornadoes might appear darker due to debris, whereas waterspouts can look lighter or even transparent. Both phenomena can be dangerous, especially near boats or coastal areas, but they differ in their formation mechanisms, environmental conditions, and typical strength.

@@FloridaBiker-t3b The waterspout was over Sicily due to isolated local condition. Tornados are more violent since is a major weather front with fast moving weather front over a wide area over land. A cyclonic wind at sea is call a waterspout.

What are you talking about? Mike Lynch, Jonathan Bloomer and Chris Morvillo have been killed in advance and then they sunk the yacht! Bad weather? Just moving the covers on small boats.

Hunt for remaining 6 survivors? How do you know they’ve survived if they’ve not been found? 🤔. “Which nationality the man was from”?? What sort of English is this.

The yacht anchored! It was 5 o'clock in the morning. The people were in their cabins. The tilt was certainly dramatic. Do you stay outside on board during a tornado? No! The tornado ripped off the mast and capsized the yacht. You ask if they didn't see it coming? How stupid do you have to be?
