Anglers on a weekend fishing trip off the coast of Keelung caught more than they
bargained for Saturday, when they were rammed by one of the Navy’s 171-ton Kuang Hua VI-class missile ships.
The collision between the Navy ship and the recreational fishing boat, Bei Yang (北洋號), reportedly took place around 7 p.m., 9 nautical miles north of Bitou Cape (鼻頭角).

The Bei Yang’s skipper said the Navy vessel “ran away” following the clash.
