John, Seen this film several times and it was also a squid!

Wickipedia may say it's a squid but I remember it as an octopus.

Wake of the Red Witch, octopus. Reap the Wild Wind, squid. YouTube has clips of the "battles".

Just fire up the grill, make the marinara and rémoulade, and let's eat!

Squid and octopus do, if you're a decent cook.

I wonder how large squid actually get to be, deep, deep in the oceans. They've seen whales with sucker-marks on them of considerable diameter, suggesting that since the suckers exist with several lined-up across each tentacle's width, the tentacles must be enormous and, as a result, the entire creature immense, indeed. :shock:

Wow! Those are absolutely beautiful and require a great deal of experience and patience. Love wood working, but those are way beyond where I'll ever be. Just gorgeous!!

Thanks for posting Rufus!
