Orca attack 23/10/2021
A pod of 4 young orcas attack and disable a sailing yacht off the coast of Sines, Portugal. No-one was hurt but there will be expensive repairs. The threat to sailing boats is being vastly underestimated. Soon, it will be impossible to get insurance for this journey.

    It appears that it has been so long since we have hunted whales in most of the Atlantic, that Orcas have forgotten that we are not to be messed with. The only reason Orcas, which routinely murder everything they encounter for amusement, traditionally leave humans alone is because they are intelligent enough to communicate to eachother just what uber whale killers we are.
