Search Continues for Americans Missing at Sea After Typhoon
The Japan Coast Guard is continuing to search for four Americans reported missing Sunday near the Okinawa prefectural island of Ishigaki after their yacht encountered battering winds and crushing waves from Typhoon Jangmi, a Japanese official said Monday.
The four men were sailing from Malaysia to Okinawa aboard the 66-foot yacht Jade Princess on Sunday, when they sent out a radio distress signal at 11:06 a.m., said Takamichi Higa, Japan Coast Guard spokesman in Naha.
