Good. I haven't seen a statement indicating what the root cause was. For example: The engine block cleaning process was supposed to run 35 seconds but someone set it to 25 seconds.

Two sources indicate the keel would be up at anchor:
1 - the keel makes a knocking noise when down at anchor
2 - the motion is softer with the keel up

Yes, that's what I heard. Probably the same source. The keel being down would have helped but not sure it would have been enough to save the ship.

Good point. I think the design is going to come into question. E.g. the sliding glass door that opens when the boat heels. We will find out but probably not soon. They are going to raise the boat...

I heard the crew was out pulling in cushions etc. because they saw the storm coming. This would have been a good time to lower the keel.

73 degrees and then the mast would pin the boat over. Not good. I wonder what position the keel was in - fully retracted, partly retracted?
