I’m riding in on somebody .. I don’t care about sharks ... I don’t click .... but I don’t know who’s pulling me.

I was at New Symrna beach in Florida about 20 years ago and the surfers were nonchalantly surfing in between a lot of shark fins in the water as if they do it every day. I asked one of the surfers on the beach if he wasn’t worried about surfing among those sharks. His answer - “Nahh, they don’t bother you if you don’t bother them.”

That is pretty much the story with all the species we encounter including our own. But have in the back of your mind; "Until they do." - Tom

Orca known to kill sharks to eat the liver.

Seems I read that the smell of shark liver
causes any shark that smells it
to vacate the area.

Always wondered why they don’t make
shark liver repellant.

A lotion like sun screen, cept grosser /-).

Sounds very promising..a win win. In my younger days I used to swim in the ocean..a lot! Mainly Rhode Island’s Scarborough beach...a good distance swim between breakers. That was pre Jaws. I knew they were out there...but didn’t think about it. I’m hopeful for such a device for all, even though my days of open swum like that are behind me.

Amanda Wilson, General Manager of Ocean Guardian needs to drop the word “so” from her vocabulary. Sounds juvenile.
