The team got in radio contact with the 'Uni Sunshine' then, which was in the vicinity on its way from Tauranga to Lanshan. The 'Ogoi Ratz' was 70 nautical miles from the coastline, the 'Uni Sunshine' was 24 nautical miles from there. The Poseidon remained overhead providing visual oversight, as well as additional guidance until the bulk carrier arrived and took the 'Ogoi Ratz' under tow.
