The researchers were swimming? I guess you have to be a good swimmer to be recruited into the group.

The white shark

Is this the same as the Great White shark? 14' is a piker. That's the largest they've tagged?

With that said, never get off the boat!

While deckhanding on a charter boat off the Washington coast in 1979, a customer accidentally snagged a Soupfin Shark that was about half the length of our 50 foot boat.

We all looked at it and came to the conclusion it was about 22 feet long.

Not very fat, though, a pretty skinny creature. So not as weighty as this specimen, but lots longer.

It eventually accelerated towards the horizon and snapped the line.

Yes I think this is a good idea. Tag these sharks, and take care of them, off the coast of Florida. Then just WATCH them and DO NOTHING when they get hungry and want a snack in St. Pete Beach. I would just follow them and fly over them and maintain radio tracking on them and just watch and keep careful data and record it.

I think it is a great plan.

Didn’t they have a boat?
