Coco Haz III Rescued Off Hawaii

This seems to have missed CF over the holidays. It's old news now, but thought some might be interested.

The Japanese sailboat Coco Haz III with 3 persons on board was dismasted ~800 miles NW of Hawaii. Enroute Japan-Hawaii. No EPIRB, search was apparently started on the basis of missed comms schedule. USCG dropped supplies. Crew picked up by freighter. Boat adrift.

Re: Coco Haz III Rescued Off Hawaii

Sorry to hear of the dis-masting and kudos to USCG and the 2 commercial vessels for the rescue, thankfully the crew was alright.

Would like to know more about what caused the rig to fail.
