Eihatsu Maru's R7m salvage bill - not "a single red cent" paid

Independent Newspapers reports that the Eihatsu Maru fishing vessel, which ran aground at Clifton's First Beach last month, may have to be sold as the owners have not paid "a single red cent" of the R7 million salvage bill.
The SA Maritime Safety Authority (Samsa) wanted to go to court and ask it to sell the vessel, cargo and fuel to defray costs, according to Independent Newspapers. The Japanese consulate has asked that Samsa first meet members of the Japanese Tuna Association to try to resolve the matter out of court. The longliner is currently in Cape Town harbour with a damaged propeller and shaft.
