Switching off Baiezi Superiacht is now on a dry land in Sicily after raising from the sea floor and translated into a slow final trip from the place where he sank in the storm last summer, killing seven passengers and crews.
The yacht, which belonged to the British Technology Entrepreneur of Mike Lynch, was finally recovered in a $ 30 million complex (£ 22.2m) operations to allow Italian prosecutors to review the wreckage as part of their current investigation.
Mr. Linch and his teenager were among the seven passengers and crews that died when Baessionjanka dropped sudden extreme winds and sank within minutes.
Their bodies were taken to divers for a few days later.
Other fewer vessels in the same area survived the storm intact, leaving experts who fight to understand why the luxury yacht was so badly affected.
At that time, prosecutors in Sicily announced a criminal investigation by a potential murder and careless shipwreck, describing his outcome as “completely unpredictable.”
They clearly gave that the recovery of the Babies itself would be relevant.
Now the yacht is out of the water, the prosecution experts will be able to examine physical evidence and start smiling some answers.
The rescue operation began in May, but was quickly affected by fresh disaster when one of the divers were killed in an underwater explosion.
The whole operation that includes dozens of experts had to be paused.
The diving team was then replaced by submarine for remote control for safety, postponement of the process.
Attaching the straps around the trunk or the main portion of the vessel, it also strived for than predicted.
But last week, Salvage team, managed by TMC, eventually cut a giant, 72 million aluminum mast with a yacht, allowing the trunk to correct under water.
The lifting is 50m to the surface was a delicate three-day operation with regular checks for any fuel spill or other pollution.
Prosecutors wanted to remain supereajcht to be as intact.
It was only sunday, hanging with a giant floating cranes with more bellybags under the abdomen, that Baixian was ready to be carried by 16km (10 miles) or so onwards.
On Monday morning, it was dropped into a metal cradle in the port terms, where the wreckage, now gray and beaten, stay dry before any formal inspection or forensic tests.
Meanwhile, rescue teams will take over a giant mast and fastening from the seabed and performs final Britan for any other materials that can help the query.
Mr. Linch, the technical entrepreneur, sometimes called “Britain Bill Gates,” Last summer exempted fraud in the US and travel around Sicily with family and friends was planned as a celebration.
In the early hours of 19. August, his luxury yacht was anchored only purely near the port of Porticello, when the storm hit.
There were endless speculations about why Baieesian sank since: whether the door was closed on time and what are the second steps of the crew crew and how fast.
Three crew members, including the captain are under investigation.
But the Italian team of the prosecution remained firmly focused on his work. Last year, in their only press comments, they said it would investigate whether the accident is due to human error or potential designed flaws on the yacht.
“Only after the wreck analysis, will we understand what happened, where there was water, whether it was enough to cause the ship to sank or at that time that the Cammer Prosecutor stressed.
Last month of the temporary report by British Maritime Investigators, Maib revealed that Baiaesian – with its huge single mast – was vulnerable to very high wind speeds.
The report has not proposed an owner that it is not aware of it.
The statements given to their authors also proposed that all relevant openings and doors were closed as a storm built.
The report was conducted in the security purpose – avoiding future catastrophes at sea – not for any prosecution.
Now that Baiefian is brought ashore, Maib experts will also get access to “verification and purification and information”, said BBC and “consider all factors that may have contributed … in the accident.”
Lawyers who represent some of the killed describes it as the “most critical phase” investigation.
“We will finally be able to see which parts of the boat have allowed water, causing sinks,” Mario Bellavista, a lawyer who works for the Baiaesian Chef, told ReCaldo Thomas, he said for the BBC.
“We can see which is open open or closed or any other water intake points.”
He said the wreck would provide “first actual evidence” for prosecutors.
As another lawyer, put those prosecutors now have to find out “How exactly could happen on such an amazing boat”.
