What is it???  Looks like one of those wormy looking things from "Tremors". TIS

Unconventional anchor, I say. Boat that size could never use an anchor like that. It would sink or dramatically impair its crusing ability. My guess, it's an Oarfish. They can grow to be 17 meters in length, and the water there looks prime for one. They are rarely seen alive though. (They float to the surface when they die) Could also be a "monster sea snake". They are rumored to be pre-historic and dino-like too, like 'Ness". Who knows. The Doc

Look at the perspective. That thing is probably right next to the camera, and the boat is off in the distance a bit, giving it the appearance of a big shadow. Halfway up along the "body," a big portion is missing (Which, from what I'm reading is allegedly a wound, according to the original photographer in 1964, but where is the blood? Something that large should have a tremendous quantity of blood, which would be plainly visible in water of that clarity). Plus, that creature looks too big to be in water that shallow (I'm assuming that the photographer was on the shore?).
Another issue I have is the "eye" which can be seen on the "head" of the creature...if that is a "real" creature, it looks like it would be a large (giant?) squid of some sort (which would help to explain the "wound" as well, a bent tentacle, sounds nasty :p ).
