Ship link via Tokyo
PA Auckland Some Japanese jointventure fishing boats are allowed to work within sight of the coast but their shore-based New Zealand partners have had to radio Tokyo about 9000 km away, to contact them. Jaybel Nichimo had three Janapese squid boats on charter working just off the West Coast, but had problems contacting them until someone thought of calling Tokyo. “After a lot of frustration we found we could contact them only through a little radio station near Tokyo and we received their replies by telex via Japan,” said Mr R. G. Wilson, the manager of Jaybel. He told fishermen attending the New Zealand Share Fishermen’s Association Conference that: this showed the. need for the Post Office to set aside two special fishing channels.
