[Addendum to report 96-201] On Sunday, 28 January 1996, at approximately 0550 hours, the fishing trawler "San Manukau", en route from Auckland to North Cape, capsized 15 nautical miles north-north-west of Cape Karikari. One deck-hand was lost, presumed drowned. The vessel was towed into Doubtless Bay where it later sank during attempts to right it. The capsize was caused by the loss of stability due to back-flooding of the fish hold via the vessel's bilge pumping system.
