"Out of the blue, the killer whale arrived right in front of the
boat," he says. "Just came around right away, hit the rudder really
hard, broke my steering, disabled me and started to toss me around."
(Gold River, B.C., 2004)

Whales will begin attacking boats again (Melville, 1851), and small boat
numbers will begin to shrink. Hopefully some environmentally conscientious
whales will begin to enact laws to protect the small boats during their
migrations, and their numbers will be preserved for future generations of
whales to enjoy. Of course, Japanese, Russian and Aleutian whales may
reserve the right to hunt boats in small numbers to protect their way of
life.
