Authorities have identified 33-year-old fashion designer Martha Nolan-O’Slatarra as the woman found dead on a yacht docked at the Montauk Yacht Club in Long Island early Tuesday morning. Originally from Ireland, Nolan-O’Slatarra emigrated to the U.S. in 2015 and founded East x East, a luxury swim and resort wear label. She was found unconscious on the vessel at about 12 a.m. and was pronounced dead at the scene. Members of the yacht club reported hearing screaming from the docks late Monday, a club member told the New York Post. The cause of death remains under investigation and will be determined by the Suffolk County Medical Examiner’s Office. A Montauk Yacht Club spokesperson told news outlets: “We are saddened to learn of the tragic incident that took place. Our team is co-operating with law enforcement in their ongoing investigation and remains committed to the safety and well-being of our guests and staff. We have no further comment at this time.” No further details have been released.
