<>The shark attack last summer, which killed Julie Dimperio Holowach, 63, of New York City, was only the third fatal shark attack in New England since 1936. There have long been seasonal sightings of large sharks on Maine’s coast, though such sightings are considered uncommon. Holowach’s death remains the first known recorded fatal shark attack in Maine.<>

Sounds like much effort over little risk.

I'm not a Mainiac, but doesn't the inshore water warm up to about 50 degrees or so by mid-summer?

Absolutely it should. Probably well into the 60s but that is too cold for most people to spend a lot of time in the water.-Tom
