  Speaker 1: Hello everyone, my name is Preston Dennett, and welcome to
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: a new episode of UFOs and the Paranormal. I call
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: this episode, Boaters Beware, UFOs Are Targeting Boaters. As you
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: may know, I've been studying UFOs and USOs, unidentified submersible objects,
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: for many years, particularly off the coast of Southern California
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: in the Santa Catalina-San Pedro Channel. I've actually got cases
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: from all over the world, and several of these cases
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: involve UFOs, USOs, that are targeting boaters. And I don't
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: mean this in a negative way. I don't think they're
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: trying to scare or hurt people. But it's clear to
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: me that they are curious, perhaps, about boaters or perhaps
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: are trying to show themselves on purpose. It's a very
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: interesting aspect of UFO, USO behavior, so that's why I
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: wanted to do this episode for you today. First, a
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: bit of background about the Santa Catalina-San Pedro Channel, which
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: is where I focused a lot of my research. This
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: is quite a large stretch of water. It starts on
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: the north end around the Santa Barbara area, the Channel Islands,
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: and moves all the way south past Rancho Palos Verdes
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: to about San Clemente. And it's the stretch of water
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: between Catalina Island and the mainland. And it's quite deep.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: It's about 3,000 feet average, but parts of it are
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: up to 5,000 feet deep, almost a mile deep. And
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: I've collected about, well, 150 cases of UFOs and USOs.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: It's really more than that now. But mile for mile,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: it's easily one of the top producers of USO reports
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: in the world. It's a very active area. Cases stretch
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: back all the way to the 1920s, really up to
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: the present day. And in fact, there's been some very
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: interesting documentaries on this area that have come out recently.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Last year, Expedition X with Josh Gates did a study
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: of this area and was actually able to capture USOs
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: on film on three different occasions. And currently, a brand
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: new documentary, A Tear in the Sky, has just been
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: released by the UAPX team, and they've put forth a
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: lot of time and effort and technology and have been
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: able to capture some very interesting evidence of activity in
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: this area. So this is why I wanted to do
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: this episode today. As I said, this type of activity
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: of UFOs, USOs targeting boaters, I think shows a very
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: interesting aspect of USO behavior. So let's just get started.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: And the first case I want to talk about occurred
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: to the Washington family on July 10th, 1955. This was
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: at around 2.30 p.m. in the afternoon when Mr. and Mrs.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: George Washington and their 11-year-old daughter were 13 miles off
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: the coast of Newport Beach on their way to Canalita
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: Island on their yacht. Ms. Washington was the first to
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: notice a strange object hovering at about 2,500 feet right
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: over their boat. So they stopped their boat so they
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: could better observe this object, and using binoculars, they saw
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: a quote, perfectly round gray-white craft. It appeared to be rotating,
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: and it was surrounded by this strange haze or fog.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: And after about six minutes of observation, the Washingtons restarted
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: their boat and continued their journey. Here's where it gets
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: really interesting. To their amazement, this object maintained its position
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: directly over their boat. And at this point, Mr. Washington
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: decided to radio the Coast Guard and he explained the situation.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: And officials at the Coast Guard were very interested and
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: told him to keep this object in sight and that
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: they would launch a plane to investigate. At that very moment...
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: This object rose upward in a zigzag maneuver and disappeared
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: off into the clouds. By the time the Coast Guard
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: plane arrived, this object was long gone. So this is
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: a very interesting case. It's clear that this object was
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: hovering over this boat intentionally. What I find most interesting
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: is that it decided to take off at the moment Mr.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: Washington alerted the Coast Guard. Don't know if that's a
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: coincidence or not, but it's surely interesting. This is a
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: clear case of a UFO targeting a boater, and it's
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: certainly not the only one. A very similar case occurred
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: in July of 1987 to a group of people who
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: were sailing from Catalina to Rancho Palos Verdes. This was
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: in the wee hours of the morning, around 4 a.m.,
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: when they saw what they first thought was a plane
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: coming along the normal flight pattern that planes take to
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: LAX airport. But as it approached, several strange details became apparent.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: As one of the witnesses says, I noticed no tail,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: no wings, and no lights. Then it hovered over my sailboat,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: making no noise, and went towards Catalina Island and out
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: of sight. So what's interesting here is it actually stopped
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: and hovered directly over the boat. Again, apparently showing itself off, perhaps.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: When it did that, one of the witnesses did notice
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: strange blue sparks coming off the bottom side of this object.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: So clearly not a normal object. And another typical example
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: of a UFO targeting a boater. A really interesting case
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: with photographic evidence occurred on January 3, 2004, off the
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: coast of Santa Monica. This was during the afternoon. It
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: was a bright, sunny day, and a gentleman by the
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: name of Young Shirin was on the beach when he
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: observed this metallic, disk-like object hovering, he estimates, a few
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: thousand feet directly above a yacht. And this object was
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: stationary in the sky, so he quickly grabbed his camera
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: and snapped a photograph. Because he could estimate the apparent
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: size of this yacht, he guesses that the UFO itself
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: was quite large, perhaps about 30 feet wide. And after
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: just a few moments, this object quickly darted away. But again,
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: it's strange that it's hovering directly over a boat. So
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: these are cases of UFOs, unidentified flying objects, targeting boaters.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: But what's more interesting are cases in which these objects
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: are actually underwater and target the boaters. And consider what
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: happened to the crew of the Hattie D on February 5th, 1964.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: They were sailing along, making their way down the California coast.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: They had originally set sail from Seattle, Washington, and had
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: reached the Mendocino area, north of where most of this
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: activity is, but certainly part of this whole complex of sightings,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: when a very strange incident happened. They struck a metallic object,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: which quickly sunk their boat. There was 11 people on board,
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: and their boat sunk Quite quickly, they quickly got into
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: their emergency life raft and notified the Coast Guard who
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: rescued them. And there was no evidence of this apparent, quote,
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: metal object which had struck their boat. The boat itself
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: sank quite quickly, so they weren't able to examine it.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: But crewman Carl Jansen elaborated on the incident and said,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: I don't care how deep it was. What hold us
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: was steel and a long piece. There was no give
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: to it at all. So this was, he doesn't think
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: it was a log or anything. He's absolutely insistent this
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: was a metallic object. And UFO researchers at the time
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: seized upon this as a possible USO event. So what
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: it was is still unknown and this event exists. remains
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: unexplained to this day. It's certainly a unique event. I
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: don't know of any other case in which a USO
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: has struck a boat and caused it to sink. But
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: it's a good case of a USO encountering a boater.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Perhaps my favorite case of this kind occurred in the
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: late 1980s to a senior electronics engineer who wants to
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: remain anonymous. It was a foggy afternoon and he was
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: setting sail from Santa Barbara Island and traveling to Santa
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Cruz Island. And during this short little trip, he observed a, quote,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: fluorescent green colored light ahead of him in the mist.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: He first thought it was another ship using bright lights
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: to navigate the fog, So as a responsible boater, he
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: stopped and waited for it to pass, but it continued
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: to approach him. And he was still unable to distinguish
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: any detail because of the fog, but it was about
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: a quarter mile away and heading directly towards him. And
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: this was when the witness realized that this wasn't a
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: boat at all and that this thing was underwater. As
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: he says, and I quote, I finally realized that this
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: dumb thing was underwater. I'm guessing it was, I don't know,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: maybe 300 feet in diameter, but I couldn't get any
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: vertical dimension on it because it was under me in
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: the water. It literally passed directly underneath me. This witness
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: was sailing a fully equipped 38-foot sailboat, and as this
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: object passed beneath him, he was able to take several
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: brief readings from the depth sounder and determine that this
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: object was about 100 feet below him. At this point,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: both the depth sounders quit functioning, and the witness checked
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: his compasses, and as he says, all three of them
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: were slowly rotating. And I wasn't. I tried calling the
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: Coast Guard, and the radio was dead. So this is
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: a really good case involving electromagnetic effects. This clearly was
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: not a submarine. They don't travel right beneath boats, certainly
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: at that depth, and they don't affect compasses and radios
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: and depth sounders, all of which malfunctioned in his case.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: At this point, the object moved away and left the
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: witness pretty traumatized and frightened. A later check on his
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: experience Equipment revealed that the compass mountings were actually broken.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: And as the witness says, it was weird. I was
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: just too goddamned petrified to move. And this keeps happening
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: in case after case. When people see these USOs, particularly
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: in this area, the Santa Catalina-San Pedro Channel, it appears
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: off in the distance and comes directly underneath their boat.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: Here's another case involving an entire family which occurred on
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: June 15th, 1982. It's quite a dramatic event. This family
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: was sailing from the mainland to Catalina. The stepfather owned
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: a construction company and often rented a boat for the
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: weekend to take his family to Catalina where his mother
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: had a clothing store on the island. And on this
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: evening of June 15th, the family of three encountered strange
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: lights in the deep water. As one of the witnesses says,
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: Around 8 p.m., my mother yells to my stepdad to
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: look over the port side and asked, What is that?
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: I looked and I saw a huge lighted object moving
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: fast under the water. My mother was very scared and
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: went below. The witnesses were all mystified, including the stepdad
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: who was trained to identify craft. As the witness says,
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: he was in the Navy for years and sailed all
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: over the world and knows ships and subs. It lasted
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: around five minutes, just going from one side and then
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: the next in a criss-cross pattern. So that is unusual.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: The witnesses did their best to avoid this object. As
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: they said, we sailed west, moving away from it as
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: it moved east. I never told anyone about this, nor
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: do we talk about it. My stepbrother is in the
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: Navy and worked on an LA class sub. We talked
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: one night, and he said just forget about it and
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: to not go there. But according to this witness, this
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: object was quite large. As he says, the object was
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: 50 feet, in a circle, and bright, more watts than
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: I have ever seen. I am an electrician and work
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: on lighting. and this thing was bright and gave off heat.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: So this really quite frightened them. The encounter left the
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: family somewhat traumatized, and the effects of this encounter were long-lasting.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: As the witness says, My parents stopped sailing after that summer.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: I live less than 20 miles from the area, and
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: I still think about it all the time. A very
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: strange situation to be in. So many, many cases like this.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: What follows is another typical case which occurred in July
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: of 1988, right off the coast of Catalina on the
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: landward side. A man, an anonymous witness, was making a
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: night crossing to Catalina Island. He was aiming for two harbors,
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: but when he reached the island, he realized that he
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: had gone too far east. So he turned west and
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: was traveling along the Catalina coast toward two harbors when
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: this weird USO targeted his boat. As this witness says,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: and I quote, All of a sudden, the ocean lit
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: up like a built-in pool about 100 yards on both
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: sides of me. Now, I'm a night scuba diver, and
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: I know how light goes underwater. This was different. The
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: light was in a perfect square. Besides the ocean lighting
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: up right under my boat, the light being in a
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: square seemed odd to me. This was a fairly brief sighting,
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: as the witness says. It lasted only about 15 seconds,
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: but when I reached two harbors, it seemed like I
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: lost two hours. I was very late. I never thought
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: much about the time then. So this could very well
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: be more than just a sighting, As I'm sure you know,
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: missing time is a huge red flag pointing towards a
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: possible onboard UFO experience. The witness never investigated that possibility
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: in terms of hypnotic regression, but it's something he did
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: notice and I think is an important detail in this case.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: The witness says he never actually saw any object, just
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: this white light in the shape of a square. our rectangle,
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: and at the time, he had never even heard of USOs,
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: and it wasn't until he heard of similar reports in
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: this area that he realized he had seen one himself.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: Another really interesting case, and the last one I want
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: to present to you today, I heard from a caller
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: in when I was doing the Coast to Coast radio
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: show with Art Bell. And one of the gentlemen who
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: was listening to this show called in to report his
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: own incredible encounter he had with multiple USOs right off
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: the Channel Islands, off the coast of Santa Barbara. He
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: was in a small boat in waters that were only
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: a few hundred feet deep when he saw large gray
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: shapes flitting around beneath his boat. And most of these
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: were too deep for him to get a good look
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: at it. And he assumed that these were fish, you know,
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: large fish, whales perhaps, dolphins, he wasn't sure. But occasionally
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: some of these would come closer to the surface only
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: to dart back down again. And he started to get
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: very curious about it because these shapes were too large
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: to move that quickly. And he was wondering, you know,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: is this marine life or could this be something else?
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: So he kept looking at it, and after several minutes
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: of observing this activity, he got a real shock when
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: one of these objects came up right under his boat.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: And he was amazed to see that this was an object, artificial.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: He said it was round in shape and appeared to
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: be metallic. And in fact, it looked like a typical
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: flying saucer. So this activity went on for the next
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: hour or so, with these objects flitting around under his boat,
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: occasionally coming close enough for him to see the saucer shape.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: And after they finally departed, he was still left wondering
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: exactly what he had seen. But he did finally decide
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: that these were USOs, and that's why he wanted to
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: call in to the Coast to Coast radio show and
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: share his encounter. And I'm glad he did because it's
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: another typical case of USOs and UFOs targeting boaters. Again,
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: I don't think this is necessarily nefarious behavior on the
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: part of the UFOs. I suspect they are just showing
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: themselves off on purpose. But again, that's pure speculation. I
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: did cover these cases in my book. Undersea UFO Base,
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: an in-depth investigation into USO activity in the Santa Catalina Channel.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: and again this is a very active area and the
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: reason I wanted to do this video as I said
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: earlier is because I think it shows a very interesting
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: aspect to UFO USO behavior and they're either showing themselves
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: off or or are curious about these voters, I don't
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: know for sure. But I think it's important that voters
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: are aware that this sort of thing could happen, particularly
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: in this area of the Santa Catalina San Pedro Channel.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: It's really fascinating. This is a great area if you
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: want to see UFOs. And that was another reason I
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: wanted to do this episode for you today. I hope
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: you've enjoyed it. I want to thank you once again
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: for watching. I truly appreciate it. And until next time,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: keep searching for answers, keep looking for the truth, and
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: most importantly, keep having fun.
