Hostesses, 20 and 22, who survived Bayesian superyacht disaster say they are 'alive by a miracle' as they reveal terror of sinking ordeal
Two young women who had been working as hostesses on the Bayesian superyacht when it sank have broken their silence about their horror ordeal.
Leah Randall, 20, and Katja Chicken, 22, were on board the £30 million vessel when it was suddenly struck by a waterspout tornado just before 5am on Monday.
The crewmembers escaped along with the yacht's captain, New Zealander James Cutfield, and Angela Bacares, the wife of British tech tycoon Mike Lynch who owned the Bayesian.
Leah, who hails from South Africa, and Katja, who is German, have been staying at the Domina Zagarella hotel in Santa Flavia, which has been used as a base by emergency services throughout the search and recovery mission.
The pair are reported to be in a state of shock, and were tearful as they told Italian media: 'We are alive by a miracle'.
