Something Fishy Happening in NW Waters

Since July, more than once we have seen larger-than-life sea creatures taking over news headlines. So far, we've learned of West Seattle's freakishly giant man-eating 8-foot, 100-pound squid, a dead whale found on the bow of a cruise ship in Vancouver, BC, and on Friday, a 46-foot-long juvenile fin whale.

It's not murder on the Holland America cruise ship Zaandam, says a spokeperson, but it may be suicide. Alaska state troopers say Washington's Amber Malkuch, 45, went missing Monday morning while the ship was visiting Glacier Bay National Park, northwest of Juneau. A woman's body was found in the 57-degree water at 4:30 p.m. Monday, but hasn't been positively identified.

Have you been just aching to hit the open sea in style?
