The yacht was going round in circles, it appeared to have the engine running but no sails up. We did not board but tried to raise anyone aboard with our fog horn. Informed Italian Coast Guard who came out to us and then on to the abandoned yacht. Don't know the outcome but felt we did all we could.

Can you claim it?

Then abandoned with crew in a dinghy ashore?

The condition looks like a drug addict lived on it. Maybe it broke free from a mooring someplace and they couldn't sail it.

An adandoned boat will have poorly set or damaged sails. There is rarely sufficient crew to man a derelict. I'd radio the coastguard of the relevant country, in case something was amiss. If the distance to nearest port is short one can attempt salvage. i've never attempted towing under sail. Checking that no one is in need of assistance is the first prioity.

If I'm not mistaken that is a Westerly 33 from the late 1970s. Greek registered going by the flag. A fine seaworthy design. Sad to see her like this. Looks like the person on board had to be airlifted out, possibly a destitute liveaboard or even a vagrant, unfortunately. I've seen one like this in a yard in Kalamata.
