Oh ya! That is a really popular tall tale with Azoreans in Califonia. I have two ancestors who actually did jump ship off whaling boats and swam to Morro Bay (I have first hand accounts with writing about it), but most of the time I hear this it checks out to be baloney! Just watch out for that! Jeremy
