>From this morning's newspaper (The Press, Thursday edition), a note that
Chris Duff, attempting to solo circumnavigate the South Island of New
Zealand, had his kayak "split in two" and he'd radioed for assistance, been
picked up by helicopter and taken to Milford Sound settlement at 6.00 p.m.
Wednesday.
