Number of Sharks: 1

Conditions: calm seas, slight wind

Great news…….We had a shark sighting!  After nearly 2 weeks of seeing no sharks on our trips, we had our first white shark show up today.  We were on anchor for over 3 hours with nothing when the crew finally saw a shadow in the water.  Although she only made a few passes at the boat, it was really a sight for sore eyes.  We hope that it is a good sign that perhaps more sharks will be working their way into the bay, but it is still early to speculate.  For now, we are going to treasure the short time we had with such a beautiful shark!
