Bayesian sank

surprised there hasn't been anymore news on this. No reports of it being salvaged yet possible top secrets in the safes. Plus inquest into Captain/Crew actions, but no news on that either. Or have I missed the updates?

Not exactly unsinkable according to some folks.
"The MAIB’s investigation revealed critical stability issues that may have contributed to the disaster. The yacht was found to be vulnerable to high winds when in specific conditions – particularly when motoring with sails lowered, centreboard raised, and in ‘loaded arrival’ condition (i.e. 10% consumables on board). These vulnerabilities were not documented in the vessel’s stability information book and were unknown to both the owner and crew."
