I saw it on the news. that was a big , mean looking sucker. I'm glad i never ran into something like that while diving!!

i omnce saw what i beleived was a big tiger shark once while sailing through the race on my way to newport from Guilford CT. It looked hurt as it was swimming sluggishly near the surface in that strong current area. hurt or not , I made sure to stay seated in the cockpit and off the deck for about 10 miles away!!

Piemma -- that's the first thing I thought when I read this thread. The other night I was at that place on one of those dark, foggy, "spooky" nights and all of a sudden a 4 foot piece of floating wood being pushed by a swell bumped me pretty hard in the leg and scared me out of my waders.

I know they were on his boat last year, it was the Castafari right?
Maybe there was a camera crew on there again this year.

From what I hear the ESPN crew had thewir own boat this year so they could run to whomever was hooked up. Problem was they were over 40 miles away fro Castafari when he hooked up and the decided that it was too far to run. True or internet rumor? I don't know.
