Now this is a fisherman's tale, although who was fishing for who is another question.

"Suddenly the powerful fish leapt out of the sea, directly in front of the prow.

As it hurtled downwards it bent the bow rails, smashed through the windscreen, destroyed the radio communications console – and then its sharp bill lanced the left upper torso of Collingwood as well as the upper left chest and shoulder of Clouws “in a sosatie-type effect”.

“Both crewmen had ducked to avoid the fish, and thankfully so, as they both narrowly escaped life-threatening injuries as both these puncture wounds were close to their heart and lung areas,” said Gieseler.

Both the anglers were pinned against the back motor roll bar over the side of the vessel."
