Loss of the Cheeki Rafiki
Many yachts take this route after sailing out of Antigua en route to the UK or the Med after Antigua Race Week.Many pass close-ish to Bermuda ( & so leave Bermuda to Port) in a great circle tending East to follow the prevailing winds in April and May.It does indeed look as if they lost their keel having either been grounded at some stage or colliding with something at sea causing keel bolt damage.Such an impact must have been serious IMO to cause such extensive fast flooding.As a long time experieced Skipper I am also surprised that no inspection has yet been made of the capsized hull.Surely 600 nm from land is do-able for S & R ?
I guess it depends on weather conditions,but still...
