RETURN TO WATER UFO HOME PAGE

Not good enough for the program...BUT too good to throw away


       On this page are the stories of UFOs that do not exit, enter or interact with water, but are nonetheless terrifying experiences at sea. These stories might as well have occurred over land since there is no other connection than that they occurred “Over Water”. One thing that comes to mind here, besides the obvious, is that these craft are quite comfortable over water and have no great concern about running out of fuel while “playing” with their human toys.

       Several of these cases however, do have some other attributes that show physical traces such as, heat, radar contact, electromagnetic influences on compasses and engine performance. So, in that respect their inclusion here is appropriate.
