An amazing sighting today! We were fortunate enough to catch a glimpse of the infamous “Slash Fin”! This large 4.2 meter shark is the reason why our shark boat is named Slash Fin! He has really grown very large over the years and it was great to see him today. There were some big swells at times today, which caused some of our passengers to suffer from “motion distress”! Luckily the crew was there to help them get over their little problems and plunge them into the cage where their minds could be kept busy by majestic sharks! It was great to have a dolphin sighting again today, they are very playful creatures! Our gannet population was out in full force today where they had found a school of fish that were easy pickings off the coast of Dyer Island! Great stuff…
