Coast Guard seizes Soviet fishing ship near Nantucket
Fifteen Coast Guardmen from the cutter Decisive seize the Taras Shevchenko for over quota. Five women remain aboard during the voyage. Rep. Gerry Studds hails the action as the first Soviet vessel seized since the new law limited foreign fishing within 200 miles. The Coast Guard reports dozens of violations by the Soviet fleet and urges stricter enforcement. A separate Lerwick court fines a Soviet captain $17,000 for fishing without a license inside Britain’s 20 mile limit and confiscates gear and catch.
