Article Abstract:

An account of a journey on the Indian Ocean toward the Maldives, which stopped abruptly as the boat pitched over a sperm whale's backside, is given. In a reflex action the sonar was switched on to see if any more sleeping whales were in the vicinity so that it would wake them up, but no blood staining in the sea indicated that no harm was done and hence the journey was continued on further.
