As soon as I received email from New Zealand, I figured the original
message had finished its journey.  So now to sum up all the replies I
received:

Japanese fishers snagged something big and rotting, and took a picture
of it.  It SMELLED BAD, so they threw it away.  All we have is the photo
which MAY suggest a dead pleisiosaur but also could easily be a badly
mangled large shark such as a whale shark.

No one has any first hand info.  Just not a very interesting incident.
Thanks to all who replied.
