Can I Come Aboard?

This big female White Shark was attacking a guy who was inside the cage which was secured on top of the marlin board. Put a huge dent in the side of it. The diver filled his wetsuit and hurried back into the boat.

Thanks Jim,
Once in a lifetime opportunity. Although it was an approved tour boat you are not allowed to do that now. Makes sense though. The sharks that were attracted to the boat were well versed in the procedure. They were like performing seals and most of their antics were not normal behaviour, just something they learnt to do over the years visiting the same boat with the same routines. Now you know why they are attaracted to boats in that region. Regular fishing was a blast. Makes most of our tropical species look a bit tame doesn't it?
