Nebes right. Even the most agile mola mola can move at about .7 mph, and would likely take about 20 minutes to do a 180 degree turn. I'd say either the pilot whale or basking shark. Haven't heard of a basking up here recently though. Brackish water in blackfish creek? BTW Jimmy nice outfit yesterday.

I would say it was an ocean sunfish!!!
They do move slow but can move very fast when they are
approached and startled!!!
Just from my experience!!!
