Some perspective. This is our summer windsurfing destination...... http://www.sharkalarm.com.au/event/285 |
Those who are old enough may remember Rex King (aka The Galloping Major) winning one race at the Falmouth Championships, claiming he had been chased round the course by a Shark, it was a Shark, a blooming great Basking Shark, and an impressive sight it was too. I don't think Baskiing Sharks are anything but plankton feeders but pretty big if you bump into them no doubt! Blue sharks have pretty impressive teeth though I caught a "small" and "unlucky" one a few years back I just cut the trace and let it go. |
I should add it was the 1968 Falmouth Championships. |
