Coroner Elias Boyiokas said examinations showed "no visible signs of struggle or physical abuse" but that marks left by a rope were found on the girl's neck.
"It is not yet possible to say if she was psychologically pushed to act or was under the influence of drugs at the time," Boyiokas said, adding that toxicology test results would "probably take at least some weeks."

Sinead McNamara: Australian Instagram influencer died by hanging - CNN
 
Sinead McNamara, 20, was seen being consoled by a colleague, 15 minutes before her body was found at the rear of the $190million Mayan Queen IV as it sat docked in Argostoli, on the Greek Island of Kefalonia.

Her final moments are believed to have been captured on one of the yacht's CCTV cameras, which is now a key part of the police investigation.

Officers are also reviewing photographs and messages found on her phone after some crew members told police that Ms McNamara was struggling with a bad breakup, according to local media reports on Tuesday.

Take a look at her pictures in the article and then tell me she was a "crew member"

Here’s my take on all her Instagram photos:
1) culturally in Australia thong bikini bathing suits are acceptable at the beach much more widely than in the USA. Ditto for anywhere in Europe. Most European countries think nothing of topless sunbathers too. This is NORMAL beach attire for where Sinead grew up and where she was traveling.
2) loads of young women post very risqué photos on Instagram and other social media and don’t think anything of it- it’s a different world- young women feel free to show off their bodies on social media- especially those who are models. These are perfectly normal photos in the 21st century world of social media.

My belief after reading about a recent traumatic romantic “break up” that Sinead had makes me lean toward the first word from the press and investigators- suicide- rather than a simple accident. The toxicology report may be insightful as well.

Possibly her “romantic interest” was a security guard whom she spoke to 15 minutes before she was found?

We don't know who her romantic interest was. The article said the security guard was commiserating with her. Nothing says they were romantic
But I expect LE does know.
They have her phone
 
They all seemed to be in high spirits and were happy. They were having a good time.

'They left at 7.30pm but some of them, including the girl who died, came back again at 1am. The last time I saw her she had got up on one of the chairs and was dancing.

'She must have only been here for no more than 30 minutes the second time and then she left.

'Some of her friends stayed until the bar shut at 3am.'

It is believed Sinead McNamara, 20, took her own life.

Greek police have said they do not believe her death was suspicious and have since allowed the boat to leave the island of Kefalonia, where it had been docked.

The Greek coroner's office has confirmed to several media outlets that there were no signs of violence on her body but added that toxicology results were pending.

No foul play in Instagrammer yacht death
 
Hmmm, my thoughts on this have always been an accident after an evening drinking and having a good time with friends.
But, of course, if we could see suicide coming , there would be no suicides

JMO

My deepest condolences to her family.
They must be devastated
 
I'd be suspicious if I was told to "...not come and look at her body...."
Even if I couldn't handle it.. I'd want a forensic specialist to take a clear look for signs of foul play. Just saying.

My condolences for her loved ones. She was very young !
And if it was suicide... how sad that at her age , she felt like there was no hope left. :(
