No, they didn't land it. "The flukes on the tail of that whale were larger than our boat," Maclnnes said here Monday. "She came close to some of the other boats there were 12 others) and then seemed to head right for ours. I tried to move the boat out of the way. As I did. the whale caught in my line. It was a 20-pound test." The ensuing tow tasted only a minute at about four miles an hour, he said, but it seemed much longer. Finally, the colonel cut the line.
