Carl Feindt's catalogue of water UFOs
The American researcher Carl W. Feindt compiled one of the largest collections of witness reports of UFOs entering, leaving or affecting water, published online at waterufo.net and in the book 'UFOs and Water' (2010; new edition 2016).

The account
Feindt's interest began from the point that ordinary aircraft cannot dive into or rise from the sea. He sorted cases by the physical effects witnesses described on the water: boiling, depressions, columns, glowing patches. He called Shag Harbour the 'Water Roswell', and the entry is pinned there for that reason. His catalogue is widely used by later USO writers and by the scientists who in the 2020s began sorting UAP reports by medium.
The sceptical view
A catalogue of testimonies is not a test of them; many entries are single-witness, undated or come from secondary press.
