Fang Zhou 6

The 99 meter long freighter Fang Zhou 6 became disabled while sailing in Typhoon Nesat off Zhuhai City, China.  The freighter went adrift after a wave of water smashed into the bridge causing the crew to lose control of the vessel.  The Fang Zhou 6 contacted Chinese authorities who dispatched a helicopter to the scene.  All 12 men on board the Fang Zhou 6 were lifted and safely taken ashore to Zhuhai City.  No reports of injuries.
