Captain Woodrow Atwood and crew of the fishing boat "Which Way In" had experienced a frightening experience about eight o'clock in the evening on Saturday, when colootola Forces captain saw a light in the North. Suddenly, he erupted a blood-red light and, it seemed, was at a distance of 50-75 yards and closer to the boat.

While he was looking out the window, it got so hot that he had to move. The light flashed, stayed bright for about five minutes, then settled down and seemed headed for shore brown.

Captain Atwood said on the radio about their experiences, and answered the captain of the "Racer", who told him that his team called to inform him that a large red ball of light had just missed the spars when it passed.

Crew member William Nickerson, aboard "Which Way In" called it a frightening experience. Captain Atwood said that the heat was strong, and he expected that the boat will burn before the object passes.
