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?

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.
sounds to me like they were trying to turn the boats around
Only a female would say this.
Maybe one was angry you forgot her birthday? Perhaps you should invite them over for a nice chat over tea and seal blubber.
I’ve been reading “The Worst Journey in the World, with Scott in Antarctica 1910-1913” Cherry-Garrard, Dover. He describes what he calls “killer whales” trying to jump up on the edge of the ice to attack penguins and people close to the water.
They hit a sleeping killer whale. Killer whales got pissed
She should have yielded.
They converted to islam.
Just like with kids seeing violence on TV and in movies and then going out and committing that same violence, so too when a group of Oraca friends goes out and sees a movie like Jaws or Hunt for Red October ... I mean what do you expect? These adorable and impressionable little sea beings are just doing what they think is cool. Probably Sharknado should be banned from Seaters entirely.
The boats are trespassing
Well...because black lives matter. I should think.
We’re seeing the early efforts of OLM (Orca Lives Matter).
The Orcas and, eventually, their idiot allies in the fish food community are “peacefully protesting” to support the activities of violent, murderous and rapacious Orcas in their community.
Maybe their old name, killer whales might be a clue. I worked on an albacore boat one summer and our boss would not let us on deck if he saw a killer whale’s fin. Ramming is how they attack whales. They keep at it until the whale opens his mouth, then they eat its tongue. They are not as cute and cuddly as some think.
