Video shows moments before superyacht went down in storm off Sicily

Newly released video captures a luxury superyacht being battered by a violent storm before it suddenly sank off Sicily with 22 people aboard Monday.

The grainy images obtained by NBC News and other outlets were recorded on closed-circuit television not far from where the Bayesian was anchored, about a half-mile from the port of Porticello, on Sicily’s northern coast .

The yacht's 250-foot mast, illuminated with lights and lashed by the storm, appears to bend to one side before it finally disappears and is replaced by darkness.

The speed with which a yacht built to handle the roughest seas capsized stunned maritime experts.  

“I can’t remember the last time I read about a vessel going down quickly like that, you know, completely capsizing and going down that quickly, a vessel of that nature, a yacht of that size,” said Stephen Richter of SAR Marine Consulting.

British tech tycoon Mike Lynch and five of the 22 other people who were aboard the 184-foot vessel remain unaccounted for and are believed to be trapped in the Bayesian’s hull, nearly 170 feet underwater.

Officials confirmed Monday that at least one person, the ship’s cook, had died.  

Superyachts like the Bayesian, which had been available for charters at a rate of $215,000 a week, are designed to stay afloat even as they are taking on water to give the people aboard a chance to escape, Richter said. 

“Boats of this size, they’re taking passengers on an excursion or a holiday,” Richter said. “They are not going to put them in situations where it may be dangerous or it may be uncomfortable, so this storm that popped up was obviously an anomaly. These vessels that carry passengers, they’re typically very well-maintained, very well-appointed.”

Built by Italian shipbuilder Perini Navi in 2008, the U.K.-registered Bayesian could carry 12 guests and a crew of up to 10, according to online specialist yacht sites. Its nearly 250-foot mast is the tallest aluminum sailing mast in the world, according to CharterWorld Luxury Yacht Charters. 

On Tuesday, Italian rescue workers resumed the search for Lynch and the five other passengers still missing: Lynch’s 18-year-old daughter, Hannah; Morgan Stanley International Chairman Jonathan Bloomer and his wife; and Clifford Chance lawyer Chris Morvillo and his wife.

“The fear is that the bodies got trapped inside the vessel,” Salvatore Cocina, the head of civil protection in Sicily, told Reuters .

The Bayesian is owned by a firm linked to Lynch’s wife, Angela Bacares, who was one of the 15 people rescued Monday after it capsized.

“It’s extremely rare for a boat of this size to sink,” Richter said.

What’s not rare is the kind of storm that sank it , said Simon Boxall, senior lecturer in oceanography at Britain’s University of Southampton.

“People assume the Mediterranean is this rather calm and passive place that never gets storms and always blue skies,” Boxall said. “In fact, you get some quite horrendous storms that are not uncommon at this time of year.”

The president of Italy’s meteorological society has said Monday’s violent storm may have involved a waterspout, essentially a tornado over water, or a downburst, which occurs more frequently but doesn’t involve the rotation of the air.

Luca Mercalli, president of the Italian Meteorology Society, also said recent temperatures may have been a factor. 

“The sea surface temperature around Sicily was around 30 degrees Celsius [86 Fahrenheit], which is almost 3 degrees more than normal,” Mercalli told Reuters. “This creates an enormous source of energy that contributes to these storms.”

The Mediterranean sailing vacation was designed to be a celebration for Lynch, who two months ago was acquitted by a San Francisco jury of fraud charges stemming from the 2011 sale of his software company Autonomy to Hewlett-Packard for $11 billion.

Prosecutors alleged that Lynch, dubbed “Britain’s Bill Gates,” and Autonomy’s vice president for finance, Stephen Chamberlain, had padded the firm’s finances ahead of the sale. Lynch’s lawyers argued that HP was so eager to acquire Autonomy that it failed to adequately check the books .

Lynch had taken Morvill, who was one of his defense attorneys, on the luxury trip. 

Chamberlain was not on the Bayesian.

In what appears to be a tragic coincidence, a car struck and killed Chamberlain on Saturday as he was jogging in a village about 68 miles north of London, local police said.

“Steve fought successfully to clear his good name at trial earlier this year, and his good name now lives on through his wonderful family,” Chamberlain’s lawyer, Gary Lincenberg, said in a statement .

Pearlescent shores by day twinkle with lights and the silhouettes of bronzed limbs at night, but a yacht charter in Ibiza offers far more than just after dark revelry. Amid blossoming mango and fig-laden trees hides a melting pot of captivating calas , where you can uncover seldom-visited silky arcs of sand and float in mellow waters caressed by the gentle Mediterranean .

Part of the celebrated archipelago of the Balearics , one momentous scene on this island enchants all guests whether they are seeking respite or hedonism: the fiery sunsets that hypnotically ripple through the sky. Coupled with its top-end superyacht marinas, fine gastronomy, markets fizzling with life, and enviable climate – over 300 days of sunshine each year – Ibiza's pull is magnetic.

• Iconic club scene Ibiza's nightlife is nothing short of legendary, replete with its hip beach bars and clubs, attracting a distinguished clientele for decades.
• Glossy bohemia Upscale boho vibes are just as ubiquitous to the White Isle as its exuberant party ambiance.
• Superb superyacht marinas Well-provisioned, picturesque marinas are dotted along this glittering isle.
• Beaches, calas, and inlets abound And all are hugged by serene, bathwater-warm seas. It's no wonder Ibiza perennial attracts party-goers and families alike.
• Effortless island-hopping For those eager for adventure, the achingly beautiful islands of Mallorca, Menorca, and Formentera are within easy reach on your yacht.

Guests on an Ibiza yacht charter vacation can choose to embrace the island’s hedonistic side in its numerous bars and beach clubs, with some of the best found in San Antonio and on the celebrated sands of Las Salinas . Here you can truly indulge your party animal, alongside a raft of A-listers and hip elites who all convene under the sets of world-class DJs for night-long fiestas till sunrise. Throughout summer there are also numerous festivals which locals celebrate with fireworks, including the magnificent pyrotechnic display every August that celebrates the fiesta of Saint Bartholomew , with superyacht guests enjoying the best views from the sea. 

For those looking for something more tranquil, there are myriad secluded anchorages and private golden-hued bays to be found peppered around the outskirts of the island, with some of the best beaches only accessible by yacht, such as the orange-scented Es Cubells known for its authentic quality restaurants and beautiful clear waters, and Sa Cova de Xarraca – a curve of golden sands set in a beautiful deep and turquoise bay, tucked away around the rocks from its slightly busier cousin Cala Zarraca in the north of the island.

The most harmonious union with an Ibiza yacht charter naturally involves cruising to its sensational sister islands. Mallorca , the biggest isle of them all, is a hive of activity that dazzles with its luxe marinas and a spellbinding number of beaches (262 of them in fact). Calmer Menorca is teeming with barely-frequented coves and thrilling diving spots, whilst diminutive Formentera fascinates with its Caribbean-like appearance.

Alternatively, for those looking to incorporate mainland Spain, Barcelona , Valencia or Dénia are all superyacht hotspots

To find out more about possible Ibiza yacht charter combinations (including France and Italy ), please contact your yacht charter broker .

Who Goes on an Ibiza Yacht Charter?

Ibiza is the glittering jewel in the Balearics’s treasure chest, representing the perfect combination of hedonism and tranquillity – where you’ll find buzzy beach clubs and upscale dining vying for your attention with beautiful sand beaches lapped by clear turquoise waters. On top of this, visitors can immerse themselves in the island’s rich cultural history in Ibiza’s glorious Old Town.

The island attracts many A-listers and Hollywood glitterati, who come here to soak up the superyacht lifestyle and luxurious atmosphere in a medley of 5-star resorts, wellness spas and exclusive night clubs.

Part of the “Fabulous Four” in the Balearics archipelago, Ibiza was originally founded by Phoenician settlers in 654 BC and became a regular stop on the Mediterranean trade route, producing goods such as dye, salt and wool. Over the centuries Ibiza has been conquered by the likes of the Romans, Moors and even Nowegians, although eventually enjoyed autonomous rule until after the War of Spanish Succession in the 18th Century when King Philip V of Spain imposed strict rules and language on the island. At this point the Catholic church ran much of Ibiza’s affairs, including the building of several churches.

Tourism on the island began to flourish in the early 1930s after the introduction of a regular ferry from the mainland, with the subsequent development of major beach resorts in the 1950s transforming it into a major tourist hub. An influx of bohemians in the 1960s, who embraced the island’s mystical allure, greatly added to the island’s creative tilt. Today, Ibiza is a popular hotspot for visitors drawn to its utopian beaches, boho vibe and uber cool nightclubs.

Fully embrace the magic of Ibiza with a dusting of high-end glamor and choose a crewed motor yacht charter or sailing yacht charter.

As a perennial favorite destination for yacht charters in Spain , guests have ample choice when it comes to selecting a crewed charter yacht. Not sure what type of vessel to pick in Ibiza? Let's narrow down the main differences between the two:

Motor Yacht Charters in Ibiza

A crewed motor yacht charter in Ibiza is an haute-luxe affair. Think superlative amenities and services akin to a five-star hotel, combined with your own world-class chef and unparalleled freedom. Savor the thrill of being able to cruise towards blissfully secluded spots only accessible by boat, and whip out the water toys for a spin on Ibiza's calm coast. Tiptoe down to remote coves ensconced in aquamarine waters for lazy lunches or underworld adventures, before cocooning in your own private paradise.

Sailing Yacht Charters in Ibiza

The scintillating Ibizan temperatures from May till October provide a splendid climate for a sailing yacht charter. As an island known for its sun-kissed days gently cooled by slight northern winds, navigation is a breeze. Siestas are a beloved part of the rhythm of daily life here, so why not opt for a sailing yacht that mirrors this deliciously slower pace, and make the most of these vessels' wide decks for sunbathing or dining al-fresco.

With so many options available, there’s something to suit every type of budget. For convenience we have listed the average prices for motor yacht and sailing yacht charters in Ibiza below;

• For motor yacht rentals in Ibiza, prices can range from $35,741 to $2.3m per week, plus expenses
• For luxury sailing yacht rentals in Ibiza, prices can go from $33,999 to $219,800 weekly, plus expenses

Related articles

As well as the Ibiza yacht charter fee itself (plus any delivery or redelivery costs), you will need to pay VAT. But how much does VAT cost for yacht charters in Ibiza? Below are the main points you need to consider before chartering:

• VAT is charged at 21% in Ibiza and the rest of the Balearics (and mainland Spain) for yachts with a Spanish charter license. This applies if you begin or end your charter here
• EU-flagged yachts can charter anywhere in Spain
• For non-EU flagged yachts, charters can only take place in the Balearic Islands and Barcelona

A 24% Non-Resident Income Tax may apply if the owning company has fiscal residency in a country that does not currently have in force a dual taxation treaty with Spain

For additional information on VAT and extra fees concerning your yacht charter in Ibiza, please consult your chosen yacht charter broker .

May till the end of October  are the best times to visit Ibiza's pine-fragranced shores. Averaging 23-24 degrees in May, the temperatures start to climb in July and August (Ibiza's peak season) reaching 31 degrees.

Turquoise-sea dips in Ibiza are also invitingly warm, reaching a peak of 26 degrees in August.

Most Ibiza yacht charters will commence in Ibiza Town, where you can arrange for the yacht to be berthed in a slip for the night. There are two main harbors here, with the largest and most well-equipped being Marina Ibiza – home to numerous upscale bars and restaurants as well as celebrated clubs Blue Marlin , Lio and Pacha , great for kicking things off in style.

Ibiza Old Town is also perfect for exploring the island’s cultural roots and guests can spend their first day meandering the winding lanes, awash with colorful daubed houses and cafes that spill out onto the narrow pavements, all adding to the magical allure.

Sample itineraries

The Ibiza yachting scene is undeniably glitzy and redolent of lives well-lived. With outstanding marinas replete with exclusive restaurants and ultra-chic bars all fringed by waters with a pale topaz glow, it's no wonder berths here are so sought-after. Here are the best superyacht marinas in Ibiza.

• Ibiza Magna Marina: located in a prime position by the charming Old Town, this marina has over 85 berths for yachts up to 60m.
• Sovren Marina: situated in the heart of Ibiza, this highly exclusive marina has 16 berths for superyachts between 60m to 185m.
• Marina Ibiza: stylish marina with 425 berth capacity for yachts up to 110m.
• San Antonio Marina : nestled on Ibiza's West Coast with moorings for 578 yachts up to 55m.

For nights not spent in a marina, Ibiza is brimming with beautiful anchorage spots. One of our top picks is Cala Jondal – a long sweeping crescent of sparkling blue waters backed by smoky pines which the superyacht set flock to each year. Another top pick is the urbane-cool of Blue Marlin Beach Club and its billowing ivory cabanas beckon the most discerning jet-setters here, who sip sundowners as an apricot glow dapples the shorefront.

Further north-west, the blindingly pretty Es Cubells is where the glitterati settles for a less frenetic pace. Citrus-scented, the village is populated by clouds of bougainvillea whose petals fall like confetti in front of whitewashed fincas . Jade-blanketed cliffs cradle three quiet coves, so slip on some scuba gear or doze happily on one of its intimate beaches before jumping back on board.

Next, cruise towards the solitude of  Cala d'Hort, a cove that's one part pearly-white white sands to two-parts eye-popping teal sea. You'll have an excellent vantage point here of the ethereal Es Vedrá, a lonely limestone cliff that soars majestically from the water. From your sundeck Jacuzzi, you will also be in prime position to marvel at the sunset perform its nightly arabesques, veering vividly from vermillion to magenta in minutes.

One of Ibiza's liveliest and well-known coves, golden  Cala Bassa curves sweepingly into a pool of water tinted an unfathomable shade of turquoise. Tanned party-goers saunter down to its celebrated beach club for aperitifs on plumped-up daybeds, before hopping back on their superyacht to reach nearby San Antonio and shimmying till dawn.

In the north, opt for spine-tinglingly gorgeous Cala Portinatx for a glorious strip of unspoiled coastline. Watersports abound here, and hiking trail excursions providing vertiginous sea views of the glass-clear aquamarine shallows below. Seek refuge at  Aguas Blancas , lingering at its tranquil beach and soaking up its laid-back bohemian atmosphere. Pay a visit to the much-loved chiringuito  for a steaming paella after a sun-baked day's subaquatic exploration.

• Consider chartering a yacht on either side of the shoulder season in Ibiza if you would prefer fewer crowds. This is either April to May or September to October.
• In the Balearic Islands, anchoring directly above Posidonia (type of seagrass) preservation areas are not allowed, with fines issued if you break the rules. Protected anchorage zones in the Balearics include: Cabrera, Sa Dragonera, Cala Blava, Portopetro, Punta de L’Avançada and Cala d’Or
• You may find that whilst cruising in the Balearics some bays have color-coded buoys according to boat length. This is to help protect underwater flora and they must be obeyed.
• Most shops will close each day from 2 pm till 5 pm for an afternoon siesta.
• If you are interested in experiencing Ibiza nightlife, remember that most clubs do not open till at least midnight.
• Some coves in Ibiza (such as Aguas Blancas) have areas reserved for nudists.
• Whilst exploring onshore, it is handy to have cash on you, as a considerable number of small, independent businesses in the Balearics will not accept card payment. Luckily, there are plenty of cashpoints dotted around the marinas.

We strongly advise booking well in advance of your planned Ibiza yacht charter to ensure you get the perfect vessel for your selected dates. We recommend booking at least 3 months ahead to give your broker the time to organize a sublime bespoke yacht charter and book ahead for the nights you intend to spend in marinas. This is particularly pertinent to the Balearics, where fewer West Mediterranean yachts are in the region during peak season, and a Spanish charter license will need to be obtained.

Ibiza Yacht Charter Q&A

For most Ibiza yacht charters to be secured, you will usually need to provide a completed charter agreement and 50% of the charter fee as a deposit. This is payable once the contract has been signed.

You will have a greater variety of yachts to pick from if you decide to start your charter in Ibiza or Mallorca compared to mainland destinations. Whilst Barcelona certainly has a considerable array of yachts to choose from, it is not as extensive as the islands. 

We also strongly recommend that you book your yacht charter in Ibiza at least three months in advance to ensure you get the yacht you desire. The longer you leave it, you'll find you'll have less choice available.

There is a yacht to suit almost every budget in Ibiza so rest assured that you will find a vessel suitable to your requirements.

But when booking do keep in mind the costs that aren't included in the base rate, namely VAT and the APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance). The APA is usually paid in advance of the charter and is commonly set at 30% of the charter fee. This allowance covers expenses such as fuel, berthing, food and drinks, as well as any special requests. 

Please consult your yacht charter broker for any other costs you may need to factor in.

May through till October is the best time to visit the sun-drenched shores of Ibiza. Temperatures can rise to a heady 31 degrees in July and August, with its waters reaching 26 degrees respectively.

Yachts will need to obtain a Spanish charter licence in order to cruise Ibizan waters, this is applicable if you are beginning or ending your charter in Spain.

Find the best Ibiza yacht that meets your requirements by browsing on our website the selection of luxury motor yachts and sailing yachts to charter in Ibiza. All you need to do is pick your chosen dates, number of guests, yacht type, features, and desired onboard toys and we'll show you what's available.

If you make a booking enquiry, a yacht charter broker will then contact you and craft a bespoke charter proposal for Ibiza.

Alternatively, you can contact your  yacht charter broker directly to conduct research on your behalf.

Yes, it is certainly possible to cruise towards mainland Spain. A number of Ibiza charters (that may also incorporate the other Balearic Islands) decide to begin or end their yacht charters in popular mainland destination such as Barcelona, home to a renowned superyacht marina, vibrant Valencia, a mere 50 miles from the Balearics, or picture-perfect Dénia in the Costa Blanca.

Yacht Charter Ibiza

An Ibiza yacht charter is bohemian, luxurious, and remarkably beautiful. Discover why this Spanish island in the Balearics is among the Mediterranean’s most glamorous hot spots.

With hot summer temperatures arriving as early as May and lasting right through to early October, the idyllic island of Ibiza provides a desirable climate for you to enjoy and a longer season than many other areas in the Mediterranean. Ibiza attracts a well-heeled superyacht crowd to enjoy the sunshine and uber-chic hangouts, from extravagant superclubs to trendy beach clubs and restaurants.

Northrop & Johnson is a leading yacht charter brokerage with access to the best luxury yacht rentals in Ibiza, including elegant sailing yachts, motor yachts, superyachts, and mega yachts built by pedigree boatbuilders. Contact our luxury yacht brokers today or browse our Ibiza yachts for charter and discover this exceptional Mediterranean destination at your own pace.

Ibiza superyacht charter guide

Ibiza has magnetic qualities, some say literally. No other Mediterranean destination combines the same club-cove-music-mocktail mix. The island’s magnetism attracted a beatnik crowd in the 1960s and nightclub-loving hedonists in the 1980s and 90s, creating an up-market hippy-chic vibe. The result is an eclectic fusion that exists nowhere else in Europe. Chartering a motor yacht or sailing yacht in Ibiza is the ultimate experience in that it serves as a haven for everything this Balearic Island town has to offer.

Yoga retreats

Ibiza is a popular spot for yoga retreats and health/wellbeing travelers, but the party vibe remains strong. If you are looking for more boho glamour than trance music during your luxury boat rental, try out Experimental Beach during the summer season – it combines a beach club, restaurant and nightspot and has a laid-back vibe. Not far away, on Playa Es Cavallet, is the slicker El Chiringuito – a place to enjoy pure beach serenity with high-quality al fresco dining.

The Heart Club

If you want to get away from Ibiza’s typical scene, the Heart Club, created by the Adrià brothers and Cirque Du Soleil, offers a fabulous up-market fusion of lounge and fine dining. Lio, which has recently operated pop-ups in both London and Porto Cervo, is a trendy cabaret club with a view onto both Marina Ibiza and the beautiful castellated Dalt Vila (the old town).

Remote anchorages

Cala Xarraca is just one of the many anchorages in Ibiza; the bay is 295 feet long, one of the most beautiful and isolated on the island, and is the perfect setting for a romantic evening meal. One unique feature is the natural mud bath, which is said to have healing properties.

There is something for everyone on the island of Ibiza and it’s a more family-friendly destination than you might expect. The island has a smoke-free beach at Santa Eulàlia and when it comes to water-based exploring, there’s fantastic snorkeling around the submarine peaks of the Es Vedrà rock.

Ibiza and Formentera

If you want even more relaxation, sail 20 minutes to the silver sands of Playa de Ses Illetes in Formentera, one of the smallest islands in the Balearic Islands. This tiny island may have a reputation for being relatively peaceful compared to its neighbor, but it has upped its game with many desirable beach restaurants. Take the tender or swim ashore to Beso Beach for a long, lazy lunch, or head to the chic 10 Punto 7 for sunset cocktails followed by a mix of Italian and Japanese cuisine. The shallow azure sea explains why Formentera is also nicknamed the Bahamas of the Mediterranean.

Our expert brokers know the cruising grounds intimately, both personally through first-hand experience and in real time through contacts on the ground. Your itinerary will be tailored specifically for you to deliver the holiday you want.

New to charter?

Planning the perfect charter requires specialist knowledge, trusted contacts on board and on the ground, as well as first-hand knowledge of yachts, crews and locations, as well as legal contracts and local regulations to build an experience that suits you perfectly. Another reason to choose a broker is that sometimes there can be unforeseen issues with yachts or destinations and having an experienced broker to protect your interests and build a plan B is hugely reassuring. 

Creating the unforgettable is what we do at Burgess. It’s what our knowledge, experience and passion are all about. We take all the hassle out of the planning so you can just turn up and have the best holiday ever.

David Lapierre

"Great experience to visit Formentera in one of their boats, we have an amazing day and everything was very profesional, booking, yacht and crew. No doubt I would recomend Barracuda Ibiza Charter. Thank you guys"

Richard Hoogenboom

"Each year we visit the White Island and we take a boot out for a day. We've have been using the charter now for many years. The first year we took a boot out, David has been our skipper. He's an excellent tour guide and really can show places off the beaten track. The years after we just took the boat ourselves and he is very helpful with tips on where to anchor and where to go. The boats are in good condition, easy to get around with and a day out on the water is a great experience. Cannot wait to go back, pick a boat and head for Formetera. ;-) See you in the new year guys! Barracuda Ibiza Charter provides you with all you need and is easy to find in Ibiza Marina."

"I cannot recommend barracuda boats enough, David was fantastic he could not have done any more for us. His communication was very prompt and professional even when our plans. Thank you for all your help in arranging a great day for us we will be back next year!!"

Christian Taconet

"What good memories this summer in Ibiza with Barracuda Ibiza Charter. Next year we repeat"

Bart Jansseune

"Top Charter company with great service! David was a great help in navigating us around Ibiza & Formentera! Top price/Quality ratio"

Virginie Augagneur

"We had an amazing time on two boats we rent last week. Really sweet staff, very professional and taking great care of us. We went to Formentera and had a splendid time having lunch in a beach restaurant and swimming at every spot we went to. Many thanks to Barracuda Ibiza Charter's team"

Adriana Gatagán

"100% recommendable experience. I spent a few days in Ibiza and we wanted to rent a boat to spend the day sailing through Formentera. David showed us all its corners and made a great day out of the trip. He was very friendly and attentive throughout the day. When we come back we will call him for sure! Thanks for everything"

Natalia Bedmar Arranz

"It has been a great experience. Some friends and I made a boat trip Ibiza-Formentera where they took us to the best beaches and chiringuitos of the place. The manners have been exceptional and the boat had all the facilities so that we did not lack anything (they were very attentive with us). We are certainly looking forward to repeating more activities with the Barracuda company!"

María Vallhonrat

"Wonderful day of navigation between Ibiza and Formentera. Thanks, David, for making it so easy, we will repeat for sure. Excellent professionals, 100% recommended..."

Jesus Reyes

"We started a journey to Formentera comfortably installed receiving all kinds of useful and friendly explanations about navigation. We anchored in crystalline waters of a color full of contrasts and turquoise and blue reflections. The dip was wonderful in clear and invigorating waters ... we had a great time. Then they came looking for us in an inflatable boat and we ate very well with sea views. We came back tanned and happy. In short, a very well organized and entertained experience with a lot of professionalism and naturalness. We will repeat without a doubt!!!"

Boat Rental Ibiza & Formentera | Motorboats | Yachts | Sailboats

Barracuda Ibiza Charter offers a unique way to discover Ibiza and Formentera on board of one of its motor boats, sailboats, zodiacs or yachts . Get ready to enjoy an unforgettable experience on board of one of our chartered boats. No matter whether you rent a RIB, motorboat, sailboat or yacht, we know the boat charter business and we are dedicated to an unsurpassed customer service. We offer an extensive fleet of chartered yachts , bareboat hire (where you are the captain) and crewed yacht charters for the ultimate in boat hire and rental experience. We even have a selection of boats for special events that can carry as many as 150 passengers — contact us if you are planning a wedding, bachelor or other party and we will gladly assist you in your boat charter needs. Our very special attention ensures an amazing and unforgettable holiday in contact with both sea and nature.

You can rent the boat or yacht yourself or we can arrange for a captain and crew. There is no limit to the level of service, from a bottle of chilled champagne, a fully catered meal, a healthy “bio” lunch or the best sushi Ibiza has to offer. And it doesn’t stop there. Perhaps you would like a jet-ski or an on-board massage therapist? Give us just a few days’ notice and we will make it happen.

Whether your preference is a sailboat, catamaran, motorboat or yacht , we offer daily as well as weekly charters . A longer rental period allows you not only to explore boat routes around the Pitiuses (Ibiza and Formentera) by sailing around them and discovering hidden coves and bays, but also sailing to the islands of Mallorca and Menorca. The Balearic Islands have ideal weather conditions for navigating and the sailing season draws bareboat and crewed boat charters from everywhere. The islands are in a privileged geographical position that create a so-called “Mediterranean front” with temperate conditions. What this means is that Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza and Formentera benefit from weather conditions which make navigation of all types of boats safe between the months of May and October. Mostly sunny weather prevails during these months and only rarely will you experience an odd shower between mid-August and late September. The summer season is warm but the sea breeze always makes it pleasant.

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.

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.

Tornado likely sank luxury yacht off coast of Sicily, officials say, as search for survivors continues

Updated on: August 20, 2024 / 7:56 PM EDT / CBS/AP

Police divers resumed searching Tuesday for six people believed trapped in the hull of a superyacht that sank in deep seas off Sicily, including a British tech magnate who was celebrating his recent acquittal on fraud charges with the people who had defended him at trial.

Civil protection officials said they believed the Bayesian, a 184-foot British-flagged yacht, had been struck by a tornado over the water. The ship had been moored about a half-mile offshore off Porticello near Palermo when a storm rolled and the vessel sank at about 5 a.m. local time on Monday . 

Grainy film from closed-circuit cameras from shore, broadcast on the website of the Giornale di Sicilia, showed the majestic, illuminated 246-foot mast of the Bayesian weathering the storm and then disappearing over the course of a minute.

Fifteen of the 22 people aboard survived, including a mother who reported holding her 1-year-old baby over the waves to save her. One body was recovered, identified by officials as the Antiguan-born on-board chef. The rest of the 10-person crew survived, including the captain whom prosecutors reportedly sought to interview.

However, CBS News senior weather producer David Parkinson said Tuesday that it's still too early to determine whether the yacht was hit by a waterspout or a downburst. A waterspout is a meteorological term for a tornado over water, while a downburst consists of powerful winds that descend from a thunderstorm and can often be misinterpreted as a tornado, according to the National Weather Service.

As of now, Parkinson said, it's only safe to say that the yacht was impacted by a severe thunderstorm. Based on satellite imagery, there were strong to violent thunderstorms in the area where the yacht sank, Parkinson said.

That said, early Monday morning conditions were appropriate for either the development of a waterspout or a downburst, Parkinson explained. At around 4 a.m. local time Monday, the winds spiked, with wind gusts above 43 mph in Palermo. About 10 minutes later in the town of Aspra — which is 20 miles from Palermo and three to four miles west of where the boat sank — wind gusts of 51 mph were recorded, and the thunderstorms appeared to intensify as they moved east.

In cases of downbursts, when wind hits the water's surface, it increases the wind speed, Parkinson said. While at the time the boat sank, water temperatures were 84 degrees Fahrenheit, which would be warm enough to support the development of a waterspout, Parkinson said. 

"It's a great, great tragedy," said Britain's ambassador to Italy, Edward Llewellyn, who visited Porticello on Tuesday. Britain sent four investigators to the scene, given the disaster involved a British-flagged ship and British citizens were among the missing.

Fire rescue officials have said the six other passengers will be considered missing until they are located in the wreckage. They include tycoon Mike Lynch , who was once hailed as Britain's king of technology and was cleared in June of fraud and conspiracy charges in a U.S. federal trial related to Hewlett Packard's $11 billion takeover of his company, Autonomy Corp.

Also unaccounted for are Christopher Morvillo, one of Lynch's lawyers, and Jonathan Bloomer, a chairman at Morgan Stanley International and the former head of the Autonomy audit committee who testified in Lynch's defense.

The wreckage of the luxury craft is some 164 feet underwater — far deeper than most recreational divers are certified for and a depth that requires special precautions. Recovery crews could only stay for 12-minute shifts, a measure that slowed their efforts to reach the cramped inside of the wreck.

Karsten Borner, the captain of the Sir Robert Baden Powell, which rescued the 15 survivors who managed to get into a lifeboat, said he was close enough to be able to see the Bayesian as the storm came in.

"A moment later, she was gone," he said. "They said they went flat on the water and were sunk in two minutes," Borner added, quoting the survivors.

The rotating search teams, each made up of two specialized cave divers, worked Tuesday to open up access points to get inside the wreck. They were using a remote-controlled underwater vehicle, or ROV, to help in the search.

The divers hadn't been able to access the below-deck cabins because they were blocked by furniture that had shifted during the violent storm. Rescue crews said they assume the missing six are in those cabins because the storm struck when most would be sleeping, but the teams haven't verified their presence there through portholes.

Luca Cari, a spokesman for the rescue teams, said the search was proceeding much more slowly than another big shipwreck in Italy, the 2012 Costa Concordia cruise ship that flipped on its side off Tuscany's coast, because of the depth of the wreck and the limited space divers have to maneuver.

"That was much simpler. Here everything is more tight," he said.

The outing was intended at least in part as a celebration of Lynch's acquittal and a "looking forward to what was coming next," said Reid Weingarten, a Washington attorney and a member of Lynch's defense team who was not on the yacht.

"A lot of people went, a lot of people were planning to go and then of course this happened," Weingarten said.

Some of the people who stood by Lynch throughout the ordeal were on board, including Morvillo, the lawyer, who Weingarten worked with and said "was like a brother."

Morvillo's wife, Neda, is also missing, according to his law firm Clifford Chance.

Aki Hussain, CEO of international insurer Hiscox Group, where Bloomer, the witness, was chairman, said the company was "deeply shocked and saddened by this tragic event."

"Our thoughts are with all those affected, in particular our Chair, Jonathan Bloomer, and his wife Judy, who are among the missing, and with their family as they await further news from this terrible situation," he added.

Among the survivors, the Emslie family was released from Palermo's pediatric hospital on Tuesday where little Sofia had been kept overnight after her rescue. Her mother, Charlotte Golunski, had reported that she momentarily lost hold of the 1-year-old in the water but then managed to hold her up over the waves until a lifeboat inflated and they were both pulled to safety, doctors said.

The father, identified by ANSA news agency as James Emslie, also survived.

"They don't talk much, primarily because they consider themselves survivors and they don't understand why they survived given what they went through," said Dr. Domenico Cipolla, head of the emergency room at Di Cristina Pediatric Hospital.

Speaking to reporters Tuesday, Cipolla said Golunski had reported that she and the baby were sleeping in the cabin and suddenly found themselves in the water, where they also found Emslie who had been in a different part of the ship. Cipolla said the parents had been in touch with other survivors, who are being housed at a nearby hotel and were waiting for other family members to arrive in Sicily.

The baby slept well overnight and all were released after final checks Tuesday morning, he said according to a videotaped interview posted on Palermo Today, adding that psychologists had been made available.

Among the other survivors was Lynch's wife, Angela Bacares. Hannah Lynch, reportedly the couple's 18-year-old daughter, is among the missing.

The yacht's registered owner is listed as Revtom Ltd., according to online maritime database Equasis. Bacares is listed as Revtom's sole owner, according to corporate registration documents from the Isle of Man.

Its name, Bayesian, may be a reference to "Bayesian Inference," one of the two main approaches to statistical machine learning and the one that was used by Lynch's company.

The yacht, built in 2008 by the Italian firm Perini Navi, was carrying 12 passengers and 10 crew. According to online charter companies, it had been available for charter for about $215,000 a week and was notable for its massive aluminum mast, one of the tallest in the world.

The coast guard said to date there was no trace of fuel leaks from the wreckage.

In an unrelated event, Lynch's co-defendant in the Autonomy trial who was also cleared, Stephen Chamberlain, was killed Sunday when he was hit by a car while running in Cambridgeshire, England, said Chamberlain's lawyer, Gary Lincenberg.

Who is Mike Lynch? UK entrepreneur among those missing after superyacht sinks off Sicily

Mike lynch, a 59-year-old british technology entrepreneur, was among the six missing passengers who were aboard the bayesian, a yacht that sank in sicily, italy..

Six people remain missing after a luxury superyacht sank off the coast of Palermo in Sicily, Italy on Monday, including British technology entrepreneur Mike Lynch.

Lynch, 59, was aboard the Bayesian, an 184-foot-long British-registered sailboat that sank into the water right before sunrise. While six individuals are missing — including American, British and Canadian nationals — one person has been confirmed deceased from the sinking that capsized the yacht's 22 passengers, Italy's coast guard said in a statement.

Of the 15 rescued passengers, eight were taken to a local hospital for treatment and were in stable condition, CNN reported. A 1-year-old was among those rescued. The large vessel sank after heavy rainfall from strong storms caused flooding and landslides in parts of Italy.

Prosecutors in a town near Palermo have since opened an investigation into the events leading up to the sinking, which may shed some light on why Lynch was aboard the superyacht. Lynch's wife, Angela Bacares, was one of the rescued passengers, the BBC reported.

Here is what we know about Lynch.

What companies did Mike Lynch found?

In 1996, Lynch co-founded the Autonomy Corporation, an enterprise software company now known as HP Autonomy. He also founded Invoke Capital , a venture capital fund.

Through Invoke Capital, Lynch became a co-founder of Darktrace, a British cyber security company established in 2013 and headquartered in Cambridge, England.

Why was Mike Lynch charged with fraud?

Soon after Lynch sold Autonomy to Hewlett-Packard (HP) for $11 billion in 2011, a sale in which he made around $800 million, he was hit with civil and criminal charges.

In November 2012, HP announced an $8.8 billion writedown of assets and claimed Autonomy artificially inflated its value by hiding "serious accounting improprieties, disclosure failures and outright misrepresentations," the Guardian reported.

Although the UK Serious Fraud Office ended its investigation of the sale due to insufficient evidence, Lynch and Stephen Chamberlain, former vice president of finance at Autonomy, were indicted for fraud in the U.S. in November 2018. Sushovan Hussain , Autonomy's former finance chief officer, was found guilty of fraud in 2018 and sentenced to five years in prison, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of California .

HP won a civil action in the High Court in London in January 2022 against Lynch and Hussian, the BBC reported. Damages were to be decided later, with the judge saying the amount would be "significantly less" than the $5 billion claimed by HP, according to the outlet.

Was Mike Lynch found guilty?

Lynch was extradited to the US in May 2023 to face 16 counts of wire fraud, securities fraud and conspiracy. He and Chamberlain, who was charged with 15 counts of wire fraud and conspiracy, pleaded not guilty.

On June 6, 2024, the men were found not guilty of all charges.

Lynch told BBC Radio 4 in August that although he knew he was innocent at the onset of this 11-week trial, he felt his wealth allowed him to prove his case in U.S. court.

"You shouldn't need to have funds to protect yourself as a British citizen," he said.

Stephen Chamberlain on life support

On Saturday, two days before Lynch's disappearance, Chamberlain was seriously injured in a road accident, Reuters reported, citing a person familiar with the matter.

Chamberlain was struck by a car in Cambridgeshire on Saturday morning and was placed on life support, the person said, per Reuters.
