THE BAYESIAN yacht was sunk by a freak "Black Swan" waterspout which would have appeared without warning, maritime experts believe.

One British superyacht expert has said the industry has "never faced anything like this" after the boat sank some 164ft to the bottom of the sea in mere minutes.

The yacht's 264ft tall mast was hammered by a water tornado as storms battered the Porticello Harbour near Palermo in Sicily at around 5am on Monday.
