Soviet fishing ship leaves Boston with 16 tons seized
The 503 foot Antana Snechkus departed Boston minus 16 tons of river herring confiscated by U S authorities under the 200 mile limit that began March 1. Tass reported captains told to strictly observe the fishing rules and to explain them to crews. A near collision occurred as the ship backed from the Coast Guard pier, and the vessel received a civil citation that could bring fines up to 25000 dollars and loss of its U S fishing permit.
