Crane vessels and distant manipulation: the retrieval of Bayesian goods or systems.
Rewritten Article:
The long-awaited recovery operation for the sunken yacht, the Bayesian, began on April 30 in the waters off Santa Flavia, a few kilometers from Palermo, Italy. For the next few weeks, a large area surrounding the yacht's wreckage will be off-limits to all activities except the recovery efforts. The prohibited activities within a 650-meter radius include swimming, diving, boating, fishing, and even flying a drone or helicopter. This restriction will remain in place until the Bayesian is lifted from the seabed and towed to the port of Termini Imerese.
The authorities have left no stone unturned, issuing an ordinance that leaves limited room for error. The ordinance, issued by the Palermo Coast Guard, forbids any interference with the work of the specialized companies, Hebo Maritiemservice and Smit Salvage International, hired by Revtom Ltd, owned by Angela Bacares, the widow of Mike Lynch, who died in the sinking along with six others.
Investigating magistrates have placed three people under investigation, and their focus is on the responsibility of the yacht's commander, James Cutfield, the chief engineer, Tim Parker Eaton, and sailor Matthew Griffith. The experts estimate that the yacht needs to be secured before any critical operations, such as cutting the main mast, can be performed. The main mast, built by Perini Navi, is the largest in its category and stands at a height of 75 meters. Once severed, the mast will be brought to the surface, and then the entire vessel, weighing 24 tons, will be raised, excluding the water it has taken on.
This operation is of significant global interest, with representatives from various countries, including the suspects' and survivors' countries of origin – New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States – coming to witness the proceedings. Among the notable American victims was Jonathan Bloomer, president of Morgan Stanley International, and his wife Anne Elizabeth, along with their lawyer Chris Morvillo, his wife Neda Nassiri, and the ship's chef, Recaldo Thomas. They were all on board for a celebratory cruise following Lynch's successful multimillion-dollar lawsuit against HP.
The recovery operation is expected to be completed by late May, with the Dutch crane vessel Hebo Lift 10 and Hebo Lift 2 participating in the process. The outcome of the investigation and the forensic analysis of the wreck will likely determine the direction of the pending legal proceedings. Additionally, the presence of encrypted hard drives aboard the vessel may lead to complex issues related to civil claims, criminal liability, and insurance disputes.
