Izu Islands Ferry Stranded in Tokyo Bay After Rudder Issue

From Kyodo:

The 280-ton jetfoil vessel operated by Tokai Kisen Co. reported at around 10 a.m. that it had "lost control of steering due to an oil leak." There have been no reports of injuries among the 116 passengers and five crew members.

Three passengers so far reported they were not feeling well, and food and water were delivered to the ship by a coast guard helicopter.
