Camper & Nicholsons, as the manager for SY Bayesian, would like to clarify our role in the SY Bayesian incident. Contrary to some reports, we are acting solely as a service provider for the yacht and are not the shipowner of SY Bayesian.
As the yacht service provider, Camper & Nicholsons is not involved in the debunkering or wreck removal operations, this is handled by the salvage company appointed for the incident. However, we are providing maximum support to all parties directly involved in these operations.
Our priority right now is supporting the survivors, working closely with local authorities, and assisting the crew members in ensuring their safe repatriation and return to their families.
Camper & Nicholsons are aware of several differing reports from varying sources on the SY Bayesian incident, some of which misrepresent the facts and the circumstances surrounding the tragedy. We are concerned about the speculative nature of the information that is currently being circulated. Such presumptions not only give a misleading image of the actual circumstances but may also hinder the official investigation.
At Camper & Nicholsons, we are fully committed to enabling a thorough and factual understanding of the incident and contributing to the ongoing investigation efforts. Equally important to us is preserving respect and privacy for the victims, the crew, and the guests of SY Bayesian. These considerations are paramount as we navigate this challenging time.
Camper & Nicholsons fully reserves its rights to defense and any necessary action in both civil and criminal proceedings.
