NYK Line Amver ship saves 4 fishermen

The Amver participating ship Linden Pride rescued four Chinese fishermen after their fishing vessel sank in the South China Sea July 10, 2012. According to a report from Tradewinds, the NYK-owned LPG carrier was sailing from Japan to Qatar when they were notified by rescue authorities in Singapore.

The Panamanian flagged ship had the four fishermen safely on board within two-and-a-half hours after being alerted of the distress.

The Linden Pride enrolled in Amver on January 31, 2001 and has earned 12 awards for participation.
