Has anyone ever been soaked by a shark ?

I had just reeled up a big shark off the bottom in 200ft. Once I confirmed it was a spoiler, I broke it off and was inspecting my line when out of nowhere this hammerhead shark charges my kayak. At the last moment he turned and whipped his tail at me pretty hard. It was a perfect soaker shot. Luckily here in South Florida the water is warm, and it felt good. Afterwards Mr. Hammerhead circled around my kayak in an excited mode until eventually seeing no opportunities and then swam off. I have had many hammerheads follow my kayak and twice they tried to bite the solas reflective tape, but that was the first soaker attack -- I felt like I was in the front row of the Shamu show at Sea World -- LOL.
