A SOLO Japanese yachtsman was plucked from wild seas in the remote southern Indian ocean today with the help of a jet owned by Australia's second-richest person, Richard Pratt.
Masayuki Kikuchi, a 67-year-old from Hokkaido, was sailing his 13 metre yacht Beam 7 solo between South Africa and Western Australia when he was caught in huge seas about 4000 km west-south-west of Perth.
