Thread: Can whales swim into anchor ropes

    Re: Can whales swim into anchor ropes

    That would have been scary, raging bull.

    Don't know about ropes but one of the charter boats down here was showing some punters a whale last year, when it swam under the boat and surfaced with the boat on its back. The whole boat was lifted way out of the water, fell off, landed sideways and copped some damage to the leg. The boat was a 28' fibreglass mono! The punters had enough whale spotting for the day and went home!

    Then there were the guys who hooked the orca on their deck winch which was carrying 700lb mono. It put up an excellent fight, but for some reason they cut it off.....

    Must have been scary, raging bull

    Cheers
