A South Korean ship that sank off China's east coast on Saturday has been located. But there's still no trace of the crew.

More than 200 Chinese ships have joined the search for 16 sailors from the "Golden Rose," which went down in the waters of off the coast of Yantai in Shandong province. High winds and rough seas have slowed rescue efforts.

The Ministry of Communications has dispatched three search and rescue ships, two helicopters and a plane to join the search. There's no word on why the ship sank.
