Default Boater chases mysterious periscope off Hollywood beach

http://www.upi.com/Odd_News/2010/06/...0971276885787/

I think someone's sub-driver is getting sloppy out there. What caught my attention was the article speculation about the sub blowing ballast as evidenced from the bubbles that came to the surface. I found it unlikely that the sub driver would blow ballast while running away from the fisherman. Subs don't blow ballast when on defense. More likely: the bubbles were cavitation from the sub speeding away.
