The U.S. Navy is confident that it will successfully raise the Japanese fishing vessel sunk off Hawaii in February by one of its nuclear submarines, and was hopeful of recovering some of the bodies of the nine people killed in the accident. As final preparations were being made on board a salvage vessel for next week's attempt, Rear Adm. William Klemm, the officer in charge of the $40 million operation to recover the Ehime Maru, rated the Navy's chances of successfully raising the ship as high as 80 percent. "I have very high confidence that we will be able to get to the point where we can lift the ship," Klemm said. "If we have broken the ship so severely, it will prevent us from continuing the mission," he added.
