From the Plymouth Herald, today:
"A fisherman is lucky to be alive after he was thrown overboard and dragged along the underside of a container ship"
He was picked up after about an hour in the water 30 miles form Start Point. His fishing boat had been in colision with the ship which was on passage from Antwerp to Italy. A second man was thown into the water but was recovered, uninjured, at the scene.
He was not wearing a lifejacket.
