High Aim 6

High Aim 6 (Chinese : Haian liuhao 海安六號) was a Taiwanese fishing vessel which left the port of Liuchiu in southern Taiwan on 31 October 2002, and was then found without its crew, drifting in Australian waters, on 8 January 2003. The owner of the ship, Tsai Huang Shueh-er, spoke last with the ship's captain in December 2002. The vessel was registered in Taiwan and flew under an Indonesian flag.[1]

While the only member of the Indonesian crew who could be tracked down admitted that the captain Chen Tai-cheng (陳泰成) and the engineer Lin Chung-li (林中立) had been murdered, what happened exactly and the motive for mutiny remains unclear.[2][3]
