A sailor was rescued after having been trapped inside a capsized boat for 11 hours, said a source with the Ministry of Communications yesterday. The sailor was rescued by an emergency response team from the ministry's East China Sea Salvage Bureau and sent to a hospital for treatment in Shanghai, said the source, without giving the name of the sailor. The body of another trapped sailor was also salvaged by the team. According to the source, the boat anchored at the Chongming Dongwang water area near the mouth of the Yangtze River suddenly capsized and then turned over at around 4 AM yesterday, trapping two of the seven sailors on board. Two other sailors were rescued by passing ships and three remain missing, said the source, adding that the search and rescue effort for the missing ones is still under way.
