UFOCAT’s Text:

Apparitions or ghost lights. 3 men in a boat "saw 2 lights arise out of the water…in form like a man." Visible 15 min. Apparitions sailed toward Boston, and then vanished. 

Time: None

Witness’s name:) WINTHROP(

UFOCAT PRN – 79586

Note: The following URN’s are all on the above PRN, however, although they have as their original source J. Winthrop’s diary, URN 079586 is dated ??-??-1638. The terrain is a river while the other two have Ocean as the terrain and are dated 03-18-1643 and 01-18-1644 respectively. The diary itself is dated 01-18-1644. Also in 079586 the UFOs are above the witnesses and in 117840 they come out of the water. This needs some revision.

Also see ??-??-1639 (same source) regarding UFOs physical influence on a boat.
