They’re still mad at Richard Harris.

The orca have just started to decipher English and are for the first time trying to live up to their nick-name “killer whale”.

It’s because they never freed Willy.

I wonder if a grenade or m-80 would scare them off?

They’re not whales actually. They’re dolphins. The largest of their kind.

This has been running around the sailing blogs. The best theory is that if they are fin keel boats with a fin rudder, a sailboat looks like a turtle swimming. I have not seen what type of boats have been approached, so, hard to say.
All I know is that our boat is a full cutoff keel with a supported rudder. All I know is the other day when we were crossing the Savannah River and hit a submerged tree in 50ft of channel, we just kept on going with no damage.

It’s accidental. They don’t do it on porpoise.
