The vessel would have no atoms left and even if it had they would immediatly be converted to energy. ;)

Quantum physics only applies in incredibly small scales of around 50 microns (Very small, can't remember the exact thing) and even then the object discussed would have to be near the absolute Zero in temperature (aka 0-1 Calvin degrees).
Quantum physics say that if an object doesn't leave a sign in his path (aka touched something etc') it can be in two places at once and that's why the small scale and low temperature, the smaller it gets the less chances of said object to interact with any other atom in the air and thus leave no sign.
As for the vessel converted into light, I'm very skeptical about that, Einstein's Theory of Relativity still applies and in order to create energy from mass I believe you'll need to travel at the square value of the speed of light (E=MC^2) and Occhi's explaination as to what would happen are far more likely, although you can say if it was in a vacuum or some material was found that could stand such high temperatures then such a thing won't happen and at least this obstacle is removed.
