Account

While the crew sorted shrimp on deck in fog, the skipper came aft and said a sea serpent had swum parallel to the boat about fifty feet away. He described locking eyes with it, noting undulating humps and drum-thick body before it returned into fog. The guest was nearby but missed it while working.
