Soini clains that he had been fascinated by the legendary <a href=\"http:\/\/cryptopia.us\/site\/category\/monsters\/sea-monsters\/\" target=\"\u201d_\u201d\">SEA MONSTER<\/a> since he first heard about it on a 5th Grade field trip to the Cape Ann Museum. Soini recounted what he learned that day:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIn 1817, as Gloucester, Massachusetts, was recovering from the War of 1812, something beneath the water was about to cause a stir in this New England coastal community. It was a misty August day when two women first sighted Gloucester\u2019s sea serpent, touching off a riptide of excitement among residents.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This historical note about the <a href=\"http:\/\/cryptopia.us\/site\/2010\/02\/gloucester-sea-serpent-massachusetts-usa\/\" target=\"_\">GlOUCESTER SEA SERPENT<\/a>, which incubated in Soini\u2019s mind for decades, was about to come to life. At the Cape Ann Museum archives, he found a treasure trove of information in a file of Gloucester sea captain Charles Lennox Sargent\u2019s unpublished, handwritten manuscripts:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Now that I had skills to research something historical, I put those skills to work and since 2009 I began researching this topic,&#8221; he said&#8230; in my opinion there really was a sea serpent that visited Gloucester, and the evidence is clear from sworn statements about what people saw.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Gloucester Times has published an article about a new book recently published regarding the United State&#8217;s most famous sea beast sighting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2504,"featured_media":12106,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[581,1121,95],"class_list":{"0":"post-6866","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-gloucester-sea-serpent","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-sea-monster"},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/Gloucester-sea-serpent21.jpg?fit=800%2C485&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6866","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2504"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6866"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6866\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10195,"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6866\/revisions\/10195"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12106"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6866"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6866"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6866"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
