HMNZS CANTERBURY successfully collected the
rescued Auckland yachtsman Chris Sayer from the Taiwanese
fishing vessel Li Sheng today at approximately 1.00 p.m. (NZ
time). Despite the testing sea conditions, crew members
from CANTERBURY displayed excellent seamanship skills and
quickly had Mr Sayer on board CANTERBURY for a hot shower
and a hearty meal. Mr Sayer is in good health and will be
arriving into Devonport Naval Base, Auckland at 10.00 a.m.
