Seized trawler had Australia's largest cocaine haul on board

Cocaine pulled from a seized trawler was confirmed Wednesday to be Australia's largest haul of the illicit drug. The Coralynne was intercepted Saturday night after Australian intelligence officers saw it receive drugs transferred from a larger Chinese fishing boat that might have come from South America. The haul had been estimated at up to 1 metric ton (1.1 U.S. tons) of cocaine before it was weighed.
