had a 12ft GWS hanging out with me for about half an hour in LJ once. i had a dead bloody YT and the blood was trickling through the scuppers. he just cruised under my yak.. then hung out for a bit. never breached water other than his fin. looked like a giant thick torpedo.

Three wonderful encounters these past few months: Juvenile G W breaching 3 times 30 feet away off Capo Beach. Mr. You-know-who bumpy solo ride off D P break wall and the third two weeks ago during 7 foot swell surfing the Point...6 foot juvenile cursing deep in wave peeling off in channel between point and Old Mans where I was paddling out just while I was duck diving ...definitely not a mammal. Wifey hears about it and reminds me who's visiting who...da.
Cheers to all the good times!

If it was a great white the seals would have abandoned you long before you spotted it or you would have seen a seal turn into a cloud of blood with half of it trying to swim away. If the shark is obviously not hunting, the seals would have been long gone before it showed up. If it was hunting you would never have seen it near the surface.

Received from another member of an adult female snagged in the net of a commercial squid boat. It looks like about 16-18 foot and maybe a ton? Not sure it if it was fluffy ? Maybe the shark that killed those two back in the 80's.
