| One of the very last Seahawk 35s built, this twin keel example has been in the present ownership for 18 years, and is now reluctantly for sale due to inability to use her fully. Afloat in Cornwall, full photos and inventory details available shortly. | | Contessa 32£28,000, 32' 0", fin and skeg. | - a classic cruiser-racer. This 1979 example has been in the same ownership for 30 years, has been re-engined, and has some nice additions such as a removable Neptune windvane self-steering gear, and telescopic aluminium beaching legs that can stow below. Afloat in Plymouth. | | £47,50035' 5". | is actually closer to 36 ft overall rather than 34 ft, and in the words of 'Practical Boat Owner' magazine, is ".... an ideal starter boat for a young family, as well as an easy to handle cruiser for a mature couple often cruising alone." This fin keel 2000 example has in-mast furling and is a well looked after and quite lightly used example of these popular cruisers, with a good cruising inventory including recently installed bowthruster, large colour plotter and other new electronics. | | British Hunter Channel 31£42,500, 30' 9". | at £42,500 is a David Thomas design that offers a remarkable combination of easy handling with good performance and the ability to dry out on her twin keels. Hunter always referred to these boats as "twin fin" rather than "bilge keel" to emphasise their performance. She is one of the few boats of this size to achieve a RCD Category 'A' rating even for the twin keeled version. Afloat in Cornwall, but will move to Devon shortly. | | Tradewind 35£55,000, 35' 0". | at £55,000 is a moderately heavy displacement long-keeled yacht with a Hydrovane self-steering gear and wind generator on the stern, and excellent sails. She was coppercoated in early 2021. Internally she is in nice condition, with good upholstery and Mikuni blown air heating. In the present ownership for 14 years, she is for sale now only because of a bereavement. | | £69,00041' 0". | to the present owner in 2016, and she is now back on the market. She has had the original 48 hp engine replaced with a 65 hp, and she has a bowthruster and an Aries windvane. In the present ownership she has had new electronics and standing rigging, also expensive renewal of the teak toerails and rubbing strakes. Unusually for a Rival 41, this is a remarkably lightly used yacht, that has never done major mileages. Afloat in S. Wales, though she will be coming to Cornwall later this summer. | | Moody 31 Mk II£26,000. | from 1989 at £26,000 has excellent accommodation including a good-sized aft double cabin. This is one of the later-built Mk IIs, which have a sugarscoop stern. The hull is epoxied, and she has a good cruising inventory including heating and updated instruments. The owners have now bought a larger yacht. Ashore in Hampshire. | | Beneteau First 285£19,750, 28' 9". | is a moderately fast boat for her size, whilst retaining a comfortable cruising interior with 6' 3" headroom in the saloon. This 1988 example is the shallow winged keel version and unusually for a yacht of under 30 feet has wheel steering. For sale now as the owner want to buy a larger yacht. | | Yarmouth 23 gaff cutter£28,500, 26' 2". | at £28,500 is a GRP gaff cutter and was built as a demonstration boat for the builders. She was exhibited at the 2012 and 2013 Southampton Boat Shows. Now in her second private ownership she is for sale as other commitments are giving less and less opportunities for the owner to sail her. She has an uprated 20 hp Beta diesel with very low hours. | | Westerly 33£21,500, 33' 3". | at £21,500 is a well maintained example of these solid, powerful cruising yachts. In the same ownership for over 25 years, she has been used for family cruising, and the present owner also sailed her in the 2009 OSTAR singlehanded transatlantic race, finishing third in class. She has a good inventory including a full cockpit tent, radar and autopilot, and the hull had a full osmosis treatment in 2017/18. Ashore in Hampshire, and . | | Southerly 100£36,000, 32' 10". | at £39,950 is a Dick Carter design, one of the few really shallow draught modern yachts available. She has a pilot house with interior steering, and a cast iron ballast plate protecting the keel and bottom when grounding. We sold this yacht to the present owner 10 years ago, and since then he has very comprehensively upgraded and equipped her. She is for sale now only for the owner's health reasons. Ashore in Hampshire. | | £125,00037' 3". | at £125,000 is a really high quality yacht offering an excellent balance of sailing performance, seakeeping and comfortable and beautifully finished accommodation. She has a fixed windscreen aided by clear screens to the "targa" arch, which also neatly contains the mainsheet, giving plenty of protection to the cockpit, with a full cover extension for use in harbour. This is a well looked after boat, that feels bigger than her 36 ft nominal length, both on deck and down below. Afloat in Hampshire. | | Beneteau Oceanis Clipper 323£52,500. | at £52,500 is a really well looked after and updated example of these popular family cruisers. She has excellent recent sails, and an inventory that includes good electronics, cabin heating and a full cockpit "camper" cover. The interior is in immaculate condition, and the dark blue hull also looks very good indeed. This yacht is the deep keel "Clipper" version with blue hull. | | Wauquiez Pretorien 35 | from Wauquiez. This yacht is a quality fast cruiser, with an interior in extremely good condition. In the last five years she has had a bowthruster fitted, all new batteries, a Darglow feathering prop fitted, new standing rigging and rod kicker, and a new laminate genoa, plus other work. Ashore in Devon. | | Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 36i£69,950, 35' 11", shallow fin. | is the preferred "owners" version. This is a shallow fin keel yacht with a very good inventory including excellent sails and a full cockpit "camper " cover. The hull has just had the old antifouling gritblasted off, and is ready for the new owner's preference of Coppercoat or antifouling. Ashore in Hampshire. | | Hunter Legend 356£59,500, 35' 6". | at £59,500 is an unusual yacht in that she is one of the few genuinely modern twin-keeled family cruisers around. Built by the US based Luhrs Marine in their UK Dorset factory in 2003, she offers a remarkably spacious interior and good sailing performance. Afloat in Hampshire. | | Hunter Legend 340£47,000, 33' 6". | with the shallow wing keel option at £47,000. Like most American boats this yacht has a spacious interior with good headroom and a large aft cabin double berth. She has a backstayless Bergstrom rig with a large in-mast furling mainsail sheeted to a cockpit arch and a relatively small headsail keeping sheet loads light. Afloat on the Isle of Wight. | | £49,00034' 5". | with the very useful option of twin bilge keels. The stand-out feature of these models is a very spacious aft cabin with double berth plus sitting space. This yacht has quite recently been re-engined with a 42 hp Sole diesel, more powerful than the original 35 hp Thornycroft. She has a good inventory including recent standing rigging and furling gear. Afloat in Hampshire. | | Hunter Channel 31£51,500. | was the 2003 Boat Show exhibit, and has been in the same ownership from new. She is in extremely good condition, and though quite extensively cruised by the family, has clearly been very well maintained. The hull is coppercoated and she has a Gori feathering prop. She has a good cruising inventory and Eberspacher heating, along with recent standing rigging. | | Dufour 36 Classic£56,000, 36' 1". | at £56,000 is a very nicely fitted out modern cruising yacht. This yacht is the three cabin version with the shallow fin keel and in-mast reefing. She appears lightly used and well maintained, and the hull was Coppercoated in 2017. Afloat in Hampshire. | | Nauticat 37£185,000, 36' 11". | from 2002 at £185,000 is one of their later models designed for better sailing performance, whilst retaining a beautifully crafted teak interior with a spacious deck saloon. She has an excellent inventory including electric winches and a comprehensive suite of newish Raymarine electronics. Afloat in Cumbria. | | Wauquiez Centurion 40£75,000, 39' 7". | at £75,000 is a fast, elegant and highly seaworthy cruiser designed by Rob Humphreys and Ed Dubois, built by the quality French manufacturer Henri Wauquiez. Although she has seven berths, she is ideal for two couples, as she has separate heads by the fore and aft cabins. This 1988 example has the optional shallow draught lead bulb keel and an excellent inventory including a silenced diesel genset.

© 2024 Clarke & Carter, All Rights Reserved. Marketing by Unity Online Advertisement Supported by Lynch Yacht Sinking Off Sicily Proves as Baffling as It Is TragicAs bodies were recovered, the authorities and experts wondered how a $40 million, stable and secure vessel could have sunk so quickly. By Emma Bubola and Michael J. de la Merced Emma Bubola reported from Porticello, Italy, and Michael J. de la Merced from London. Two months after being cleared in a bruising legal battle over fraud charges, the British tech mogul Mike Lynch celebrated his freedom with a cruise. He invited his family, friends and part of his legal team on board his luxury sailing yacht, a majestic 180-foot vessel named Bayesian after the mathematical theorem around which he had built his empire. On Sunday night, after a tour of the Gulf of Naples, including Capri, and volcanic islands in the Eolian archipelago, the boat anchored half a mile off the Sicilian coast in Porticello, Italy. It chose a stretch of water favored by the Phoenicians thousands of years ago for its protection from the mistral wind and, in more recent times, by the yachts of tech billionaires. The boat was lit “like a Christmas tree,” local residents said, standing out against the full moon. But about 4 a.m., calamity unfolded. A violent and fast storm hit the area with some of the strongest winds locals said they had ever felt. Fabio Cefalù, a fisherman, said he saw a flare pierce the darkness shortly after 4. Minutes later, the yacht was underwater. Only dozens of cushions from the boat’s deck and a gigantic radar from its mast floated on the surface of the sea, fishermen said. In all, 22 people were on board, 15 of whom were rescued. Six bodies — five passengers and the ship’s cook — had been recovered by Thursday afternoon, including that of Mr. Lynch, an Italian government official said, adding that the search was continuing for his daughter. It was a tragic and mystifying turn of events for Mr. Lynch, 59, who had spent years seeking to clear his name and was finally inaugurating a new chapter in his life. Experts wondered how a $40 million yacht, so robust and stable could have been sunk by a storm near a port within minutes. “It drives me insane,” said Giovanni Costantino, the chief executive of the Italian Sea Group, which in 2022 bought the company, Perini, that made the Bayesian. “Following all the proper procedures, that boat is unsinkable.” The aura of misfortune only deepened when it emerged that Stephen Chamberlain, 52, a former vice president of finance for Mr. Lynch’s former company and a co-defendant in the fraud case, was killed two days earlier, when he was hit by a car while jogging near his house in England. Since June, the two men had been in a jubilant mood. A jury in San Francisco had acquitted both on fraud charges that could have sent them to prison for two decades. There were hugs and tears, and they and their legal teams went for a celebratory dinner party at a restaurant in the city, said Gary S. Lincenberg, a lawyer for Mr. Chamberlain. The sea excursion was meant as a thank-you by Mr. Lynch to those who had helped him in his legal travails. Among the guests was Christopher J. Morvillo, 59, a scion of a prominent New York family of lawyers who had represented Mr. Lynch for 12 years. He and his wife, Neda, 57, were among the missing. So, too, was Jonathan Bloomer, 70, a veteran British insurance executive who chaired Morgan Stanley International and the insurer Hiscox. The body of the ship’s cook, Recaldo Thomas, was recovered. All the other crew members survived. Among them was Leo Eppel, 19, of South Africa, who was on his first yacht voyage working as a deck steward, said a friend, who asked not to be identified. Since the sinking, the recovery effort and investigation have turned the tiny port town of Porticello, a quiet enclave where older men sit bare-chested on balconies, into what feels like the set of a movie. Helicopters have flown overhead. Ambulances have sped by with the sirens blaring. The Coast Guard has patrolled the waters off shore, within sight of a cordoned-off dock that had been turned into an emergency headquarters. On Wednesday afternoon, a church bell tolled after the first body bag was loaded into an ambulance, a crowd watching in silence. The survivors were sheltering in a sprawling resort near Porticello, with a view of the shipwreck spot, and had so far declined to comment. Attilio Di Diodato, director of the Italian Air Force’s Center for Aerospace Meteorology and Climatology, said that the yacht had most likely been hit by a fierce “down burst” — when air generated within a thunderstorm descends rapidly — or by a waterspout , similar to a tornado over water. He added that his agency had put out rough-sea warnings the previous evening, alerting sailors about storms and strong winds. Locals said the winds “felt like an earthquake.” Mr. Costantino, the boat executive, said the yacht had been specifically designed for having a tall mast — the second-tallest aluminum mast in the world. He said the Bayesian was an extremely safe and secure boat that could list even to 75 degrees without capsizing. But he said that if some of the hatches on the side and in the stern, or some of the deck doors, had been open, the boat could have taken on water and sunk. Standard procedure in such storms, he said, is to switch on the engine, lift the anchor and turn the boat into the wind, lowering the keel for extra stability, closing doors and gathering the guests in the main hall inside the deck. 12 guests occupied the yacht’s six cabins. There were also 10 crew members. Open hatches, doors and cabin windows could have let in water during a storm, according to the manufacturer. Open hatches, doors and cabin windows could have let in water during a storm, according to the manufacturer. Source: Superyacht Times, YachtCharterFleet, MarineTraffic By Veronica Penney The New York Times attempted to reach the captain, James Cutfield, who had survived, for comment through social media, his brother and the management company of the yacht (which did not hire the crew), but did not make contact. So far none of the surviving crew members have made a public statement about what happened that night. Fabio Genco, the director of Palermo’s emergency services, who treated some of the survivors, said that the victims had recounted feeling as if the boat was being lifted, then suddenly dropped, with objects from the cabins falling on them. The Italian Coast Guard said it had deployed a remotely operated vehicle that can prowl underwater for up to seven hours at a depth of more than 980 feet and record videos and images that they hoped would help them reconstruct the dynamics of the sinking. Such devices were used during the search and rescue operations of the Titan vessel that is believed to have imploded last summer near the wreckage of the Titanic. After rescuers broke inside the yacht, they struggled to navigate the ropes and many pieces of furniture cluttering the vessel, said Luca Cari, a spokesman for Italy’s national firefighter corps. Finally, as of Thursday morning, they had managed to retrieve all but one of the missing bodies, and hopes of finding the missing person alive were thin. “Can a human being be underwater for two days?” Mr. Cari asked. What was certain was that Mr. Lynch’s death was yet another cruel twist of fate for a man who had spent years seeking to clear his name. He earned a fortune in technology and was nicknamed Britain’s Bill Gates. But for more than a decade, he had been treated as anything but a respected tech leader. He was accused by Hewlett-Packard, the American technological pioneer that had bought his software company, Autonomy, for $11 billion, of misleading it about his company’s worth. (Hewlett-Packard wrote down the value of the transaction by about $8.8 billion, and critics called it one of the worst deals of all time .) He had been increasingly shunned by the British establishment that he sought to break into after growing up working-class outside London. He was extradited to San Francisco to face criminal charges, and confined to house arrest and 24-hour surveillance on his dime. In a townhouse in the Pacific Heights neighborhood — with security people he jokingly told associates were his “roommates” — he spent his mornings talking with researchers whom he funded personally on new applications for artificial intelligence. Afterward, he devoted hours to discussing legal strategy with his team. Despite his persistent claims of innocence, even those close to Mr. Lynch had believed his odds of victory were slim. Autonomy’s chief financial officer, Sushovan Hussain, was convicted in 2018 of similar fraud charges and spent five years in prison. During Mr. Lynch’s house arrest, his brother and mother died. His wife, Angela Bacares, frequently flew over from England, and she became a constant presence in the San Francisco courtroom during the trial. After he was finally acquitted, Mr. Lynch had his eye on the future. “I am looking forward to returning to the U.K. and getting back to what I love most: my family and innovating in my field,” he said. Elisabetta Povoledo contributed reporting from Pallanza, Italy. Emma Bubola is a Times reporter based in Rome.

Sunday 25 August 2024 08:46, UK A man has died and six people are missing after a UK-flagged superyacht sank off the coast of Sicily in a tornado - with a prominent British businessman among those unaccounted for. Technology tycoon Mike Lynch owned the 56-metre vessel (183ft), named Bayesian. Mr Lynch, known as the "British Bill Gates", has been in the headlines in recent months over a high-profile fraud case. In June, he was cleared of all charges by a US jury related to the sale of his software company Autonomy to Hewlett-Packard in 2011. Mr Lynch's 18-year-old daughter Hannah is among those missing after his yacht sank, local media reports. Follow live updates: People missing after superyacht sinks Mr Lynch's wife Angela Bacares is confirmed to be among the 15 people who were rescued after the British-flagged yacht capsized at around 4.30am local time (3.30am UK time) on Monday. One body has also been recovered, after being found close to the vessel, according to local media.

Police divers have been trying to reach the hull of the ship, which is resting at a depth of 50 metres (163 feet) off Porticello, near Palermo. During the rescue effort, divers saw "corpses through the portholes" of the wreck, Salvo Cocina, the head of the Civil Protection of Sicily, said. “They were in the wrong place at the wrong time,” he added. The incident comes days after Stephen Chamberlain, Mr Lynch's co-accused in the fraud trial, died in a car collision in Stretham, Cambridgeshire. Mr Chamberlain's lawyer said he was out running on Saturday when he was hit by a car. Most on board yacht thought to be British The boat had 12 passengers and a crew of 10 people. Four of the missing passengers are British and two are American, Italian news website la Reppublica reports. Most of those on board were reported to be from Britain - including a mother and one-year-old daughter who are among those rescued. Speaking to the Giornale Di Sicilia newspaper, Charlotte Golunski said: "For two seconds I lost my baby in the sea, then I immediately hugged her again amid the fury of the waves. "I held her tightly, close to me, while the sea was stormy. Many were screaming. Luckily, the lifeboat inflated and 11 of us managed to get on board."

Eight of the 15 people rescued and taken ashore at Porticello were taken to hospital, while the others were taken to a hotel. The Italian coast guard said the boat had passengers from Britain, the US, and Canada. Meanwhile, multiple Italian news outlets reported that people on the boat were from Britain, New Zealand, Sri Lanka, and Ireland. British-French citizens were also among those on the superyacht, according to reports. 'I saw it sinking with my own eyes' Pietro Asciutto, a fisherman from Porticello who witnessed the storm, told local media: "I was at home when the tornado hit. I immediately closed all the windows. Then I saw the boat, it had only one mast, it was very big. I saw it suddenly sink." He added: "I think the whirlwind came from Porticello... shortly afterwards I went down to Santa Nicolicchia Bay to get a better look at what was happening. "The boat was still floating, then all of a sudden it disappeared. I saw it sinking with my own eyes." Fabio Cefalu, another local fisherman, called rescue services after spotting the wrecked boat off Porticello. He said: "Around 3.55am we witnessed the whirlwind. After a quarter of an hour, we saw a flare 500 metres away from the dock. "Around 4:35am we went out to sea for the rescue, however, we only saw the remains of the boat floating. There were no men in the sea. So we immediately called the harbour master's office." A spokesman for the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) said: "We are in contact with the local authorities following an incident in Sicily, and stand ready to provide consular support to British nationals affected." Camper and Nicholsons, which provided yacht management services for the Bayesian, has confirmed the vessel sank at around 4.30am local time. The company said in a statement: "The Italian coast guard is leading search and rescue operations, and has safely recovered 15 individuals. Efforts to locate the seven missing persons continue. "Our priority is assisting with the ongoing search and providing all necessary support to the rescued passengers and crew." Online charter sites listed the Bayesian as available for rent for up to €195,000 (about £166,339) a week. Related TopicsMike Lynch, British Tech Entrepreneur, Among the Missing After Yacht Sinks Off Sicily CoastM ike Lynch, one of the U.K.’s most celebrated tech entrepreneurs, lived for years under the cloud of a criminal investigation by U.S. prosecutors alleging that the value of the company he sold to Hewlett Packard for $11 billion was fraudulently inflated. In June, following a trial in San Francisco, he was acquitted. On Monday, Lynch, 59 years old, was among those declared missing after his luxury yacht sank off the coast of Sicily. It was hit by a sudden thunderstorm just before sunrise, according to Italian officials. A total of 22 people were aboard the vessel. Six passengers, including Lynch, one of his daughters, two other British nationals and two Americans, were missing, along with one crew member, according to the Italian Coast Guard and a person familiar with the matter. The south Italy cruise was planned as a celebration of the recent courtroom victory, according to the father of one of the survivors and other people familiar with the matter. There were 15 people, including a year-old baby girl, rescued. Lynch’s wife, Angela Bacares, was among the people who were rescued, according to a person familiar with the situation. A coast guard official said the yacht was anchored near the port of Porticello overnight Sunday when a storm hit the coast, creating a tornado-like column of air and water. The crew apparently had little warning. There was no distress signal from the yacht, the coast guard said. Karsten Borner, the captain of the boat that rescued survivors, told RAI TV that the “yacht tipped to its side and sank within a few minutes. It all happened in really little time.” Italian officials said rescue efforts were still under way Monday, and that the yacht sank about 164 feet deep. Shortly before midnight local time, Italian rescue authorities said in a statement posted to X that cave divers’ first inspection of the wreckage didn’t yield any results because of debris blocking their access beyond the bridge. Survivors include Ayla Ronald, a lawyer who worked on Lynch’s U.S. fraud case, her father, Lin Ronald, said. They were on the boat to celebrate the legal victory, said Lin Ronald, who is based in New Zealand and works in the yachting industry. The British-registered yacht, named the Bayesian, was off the northern coast of the Italian island near the capital Palermo, according to ship-tracking website MarineTraffic. A person with knowledge of the matter said the yacht was likely owned by Lynch. It was managed by London-based brokers Camper & Nicholsons. Built in Italy in 2008 by the Perini Navi shipyard, the 184-ft yacht was able to accommodate up to 12 guests and 10 crew, according to YachtCharterFleet. Yacht brokers valued the vessel at around $35 million. Lynch founded software company Autonomy in the 1990s. The Cambridge University Ph.D. and his employees deployed so-called Bayesian mathematics, which traces its roots to Thomas Bayes, an 18th-century statistician and Presbyterian minister. Autonomy was bought by American tech company Hewlett-Packard for $11 billion in 2011. Lynch was lauded as one of the few U.K. executives who had built a world-leading software company from scratch. The company, at the time Europe’s second most valuable, helped customers sift for insights in vast amounts of data. It counted intelligence agencies, banks and law firms as clients. The deal has since been described as one of the worst in Silicon Valley history. The Hewlett-Packard CEO who approved the deal resigned within a year. Lynch also left the company in 2012. Hewlett-Packard took an $8.8 billion write-down later that year and said it was duped into overpaying. The subsequent split of the tech giant into two companies in 2015 was overseen by then-CEO Meg Whitman, who took over after the Autonomy deal was agreed. The decision to break the company up came as it struggled with declining revenue, corporate scandals and management turmoil. The personal computer and printer business now operates under HP Inc., which makes computer servers, networking equipment and data storage systems. The Autonomy business went with Hewlett-Packard Enterprise, which sells business software, servers and networking gear. Lynch was charged in 2018 by the U.S. government, which alleged that he and his lieutenants had used false and misleading documents to make the business-software maker more attractive to a potential purchaser. He unsuccessfully fought extradition to the U.S. Lynch was acquitted of criminal charges in June, ending the nearly 13-year saga. Lynch declared afterward that he was “elated” and looking forward to returning to what he loved, “my family and innovating in my field.” Another Autonomy executive, former finance chief Stephen Chamberlain, was also acquitted of fraud charges. Lynch in recent years has been running Invoke Capital, a venture-capital firm focused on European technology. One of its investments was in a firm called Darktrace, which uses artificial intelligence to detect cyberattacks. The company went public in 2021 and is now valued at more than $4 billion.
