Arrowhead UFO Sighting Gulf Of Mexico Lasted 3 Days!

Although Arrowhead UFOs are not the most common of UFO shapes
sighted, this sighting was even more unusual because of its
duration. The craft was seen by the entire crew of the SS
British Grenadier for exactly 3 days!

The event occurred around April/May 1969 while the SS British
Grenadier was sailing through the Gulf of Mexico. The UFO
appeared directly above the ship at exactly noon on the first
day. It just seemed to appear as nobody saw it arrive and it
remained above the ship for the next 3 days.

According to reports the craft was approximately 1 mile above
the ship and dark blue in colour during the day. At night it
appeared as a silvery light. The weather conditions were good at
the time, with a clear sky and calm seas.

On the first day of its arrival (one minute after midnight), the
ships engines suddenly stopped and only emergency lighting and
steering were available. The crew managed to restart the
engines, which took some time as all the pumps had to be shut
down and restarted manually.

The second day saw all the food storage refridgerators closed
down and no reason for this event could be found.

On the third day at 11.45 pm one of the crew noticed that the
lights were out in the ships air conditioning room and a door
leading to the crews accomodation was opened. The engineer
passed through the door to investigate and spoke to two firemen.
But the next day the same door was found welded shut!
Apparently, the door had been welded before the ship left dock
(because of a fault), but the door was definitely open for the
engineer to have walked through it.

A few minutes after this event the engines stopped again,
leaving just emergency lighting and steering (again one minute
after midnight!). They were restarted once more, but later it
was discovered that the starter motor for the emergency diesel
generator had been dismantled. All the parts of the generator
were neatly placed by the machine as if someone had examined it.

At exactly noon on the third day the craft vanished in the same
manner as it had appeared.

Although all these events were recorded in the ships log, this
is the first time (to our knowledge) that this event has been
published. We would be interested in hearing from any of the
crew that were aboard the SS British Grenadier at this time, in
order to obtain more information about this sighting. If you
were there and would like to write to us, please send an email
