Wellington, New Zealand
Royal New Zealand Navy (RNZN) divers were on the water at first light today to assess the wreckage of the ship, which ran on to a reef south of Upolu, Samoa, on Saturday night and sunk on Sunday morning. HMNZS Manawanui is in water about 30m deep and a light oil sheen from its initial capsize is being dispersed by wind and waves, Maritime Component Commander Commodore Shane Arndell said in a NZDF statement this afternoon.
