SYDNEY An Australian weekend fisherman swam for four hours to reach shore after his dinghy was overturned by a either a whale or a shark near the Queensland town of Moreton Bay, news reports Monday said. Police came upon the 32-year-old, tired and wet, but otherwise unharmed in a phone box just after midnight as he was telling his wife the sorry tale. He told officers his four-meter runabout sank after being overturned by either a whale or shark and he had no option but to swim for shore.
