Yacht hijacked in the Med

They missed the window of opportunity for locating the boat, certainly the one for finding it in good condition. That was no more than 48-72 hours. I do understand that it didn't merit the same search as if there had been remaining passengers and don't think they looked very hard. I believe the insurer is more concerned than the authorities were.

I think the first two suspicions they had may be reasonable especially chop-shop. It doesn't seem to have any of the characteristics of revenge however. They wanted the boat and what was on it.
