Default tall ship Kaiwo Maru aground after Typhoon Tokage

http://www.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/...20041022a1.htm
says (on Oct 22, 2004):

And in waters off Toyama port, the Kaiwo Maru, a training ship operated
by the National Institute for Sea Training, crashed into breakwaters
late Wednesday after its anchor was washed away by strong winds.

The accident left the ship without power, and three of its 167-member
crew suffered broken bones in the collision. The injured three were
airlifted to shore by helicopter Thursday morning and taken to a local
hospital. The remaining crew members were rescued by Thursday afternoon.

http://www.asahi.com/english/nation/...410220144.html has a similar
article, except that they report 5 hospitalized.

This is all the info that I have; anyone else know anything?
