[QUOTE=GregAndrew;241465]Unless there is a boat or shoreline within easy reach, there is not much sense in trying to get away. As has been stated, you are not going to outrun any shark. QUOTE]

Don't need to outrun it. Just need to outrun the slowest person out there.

Kidding, of course.

Call in another kayayer, or 5, if possible. Safety in numbers and better to have aid at hand if something goes horribly wrong.
