The ' captain explained that he 1 had abandoned the trawler in the belief that she had become a total wreck she having had-ten feet of water in her holds.' TRAWLER SINKS. SYDNEY, September 11. Captain Oauple and members of the crew repained the derelict in the iorenoon, but later were compelled to leave. The Kara age sank at 3 p.m. a few miles from Kiama.
