I know its not Jaws but I saw Duel on TV last Satuday night. Am I way out of touch or has anyone else saw the reflecyion of Mr. Spielberg in the phone booth glass as Dennis Weaver calls the Cops just before the truck smashes through it. He`s weaing headphones, a whit T-shirt and looks down at his clipboard and then across. How I`ve never noticed it before I don`t know

I`ve seen the picures of Orca 2 on Marha`s Vineyard. Is it still there? I`m hoping to go next year. Any news? You can find a picture of Erik Hollander standing on the original Orca at Univesal Studios on some sites.

you ought to find out who made the Hooper locater beacon thing or make one, then put it on your keg so you can have partys with it flashing to the beat of music. That would be cool.

Here is the first picture in the series. it is the keel layed out on the jig which I made from 
scratch with a piece of shelving wood and a couple "L" brackets holding the keel in place. 
The propeller can be seen near the bottom of the keel where it will go once I am ready 
for it.

Possible Orca Lead?

Something worth checking into: 

In the Ottawa Citizen`s August 11th Travel section, there is a story on Martha`s Vineyard. Within the text is the following: 

"Edgartown seems to have been bleached and scrubbed compared to Menemsha. Stacks of old lobster traps covered in barnacles lie alongside old fishing rope. On the opposite side of the harbour sits the boat used in Jaws, which was filmed in the Vineyard. Swimmers needn`t worry about this: The Vineyard does not rank among the favourite vacation spots for sharks."

Hello back you two, 

Thanks for yer watchful awareness. Its crew like you 
that keep us afloat. based on the article you sent it 
appears the "Orca" mentioned is most likly "Orca2" 
otherwise known as the stunt Orca. 
( https://members.tripod.com/~artboard/berth.htm) While 
that boat or whats left of it is of significant value 
to us, It is not exactly Orca 1. Either way your email 
definitly helps to point out that the folks in 
Edgartown have been bleaching and scrubbing and might 
be looking to do the same in menemsha which might 
mean: 
a.the destruction of whats left of Orca2 
b.the removal of whats left of Orca2 
c.In the least likely ideal case, restore it. 
We can only hope they mean c. 
As I myself have not been out there yet I hope its 
still there when I get there. 

keep that chum line goin.....

Price tag on the Orca
 
Author:  Crazy Ian Date: 7/26/01 8:10:09 AM

Bad news guys... my shipbuilding mate gave me an estimate on building one from scratch. We`re talking in the area of ?0,000 to ?0,000 (multiply that by 1.5 if you want that figure in dollars.) depending on the quality of wood your using. You could cut that down considerably by building it yourself but anyone here got the skill to build a 35ft boat?? I`m looking into the cost of converting an old lobsteryacht. 
Next up on the agenda, when Quint`s reeling in Mr. Whitey, look at the size of the gaff he grabs from the starboard side of the Orca. What the hell is he gonna do wiith it anyhow, haul a 3 ton kiling machine into his boat?!? 
Finally, those Porbeagles in the Irish sea are getting craftier by the day. I didn`t know I`d hooked one till the line started running. Normally you see blue or tope coming down the lane towards the bait, but the porbeagle came from below the bait!!!

I`m lookin into the costs of building one from scratch at the moment, and how long it will take.When I say `I` what I really mean is a boat yard in Suffolk,UK. 
I wondered if there was a second verse to that song, as in Moby Dick, some sailors are about to break into the second verse when Dagoe stops them. 
Anyway I`m off. Out theres a Tope with my name on it! (its a little shark, `bout 4ft long, not a porker!)

Hope ye throw the lil tommycat back, 4fts a tad small to be worth catch`n. Mind ye, wait`ll it gets to be 25 an 3 tons then it`ll bound to make for some rip roar`in line tangl`n. 
About the shanty, There is actualy quite a bit more to it and I know I have it filed away some where in my hard drive...I mean stowage compartment. jest wait a spell and i dig it up. 
Be sure an` post any findings from your boat build`n inquirys.
