Eight people were still missing, state broadcaster CCTV reported. The captain was among 11 people rescued after the capsizing in remote Banrao village of Guizhou province.The vessel was a motor-powered metal boat that was “self-built,” rather than obtained from an industrial manufacturer, China’s Ministry of Emergency Management said in a statement Friday.
