Reported for being 'far right'.

 

That'll learn them.

Did you even ask what their/his/her/its/your/whatevs' personal pronoun is?

 

Fascist!

Always reminds me that Wikipedia has a page dedicatied to all those people keep falling out of windows in Russia suspisously. We need one for tech bro billionaires that have suspicously died in the past 12 months.

Its a hell of a coincidence.  Maybe the question is not the weather but whether the boat should have sunk due to it.  Reports so far seem to suggest not much could have survived it, but then there are reports of a witness from a nearby boat which obviously didn't sink.  Likely that was a motorboat though not a yacht.

The yacht had an extremely tall mast - in the face of a waterspout it was likely to go over. The reason it sank quickly was probably down to windows and doors on board being open - hot med summer night. Co incidences are precisely that. It’s why the word exists. If things like this didn’t happen then the word wouldn’t be in our vocabulary. 
 

the yacht sinking is not what should be looked at here - it’s the death of the fella in Cambridgeshire which was clearly not due to an act of god.  Whilst that may have some dark connections, the sinking of the yacht does not.

The other nearby boat manoeuvred to turn into the storm which it had noticed was coming, whilst the yacht did not. There might be a degree of poor seamanship involved too.

Bayesian was anchored for the night I believe.  Generally boats will point into the wind by themselves, which works until the wind is going round in circles.

Two bodies found inside sunken yacht - reportspublished at 14:45 British Summer Time

14:45 BSTBreaking

Two bodies have been found inside the sunken yacht off the coast of Sicily, Reuters news agency and Italian media report.

Reuters cites an unnamed source close to the search operation as saying two of the six missing passengers have been located inside the vessel.

Rescue teams did not immediately give the names or the sex of the two people, it adds.

Separately, la Repubblica reports the bodies were seen behind two mattresses.

Divers have been attempting to access the boat - which is around 50m (165ft) below the surface - since Monday morning.

The BBC has not independently verified the reports.

What if a yacht the size of this one was anchored fore and aft? It wouldn't be able to turn into the wind, surely.
