Agreed!
When I was getting my P.D.I.C. (Scuba), we had our ocean dive classes held at Sakonnet Point. We were suiting up in the dirt parking lot and noticed a dive flag already out there. After the bunch of us got suited up we headed down to make entry. 2 Divers were exiting very quickly, constantly looking back. The teacher struck up a conversation with the 2 divers and quickly cancelled the class. Apparently, there were some fish nets out not far off the point and they headed out that way for some spear fishing. Visibility was poor that day so they got pretty close before being scared sh*tless after seeing at least 1/2 dozen sharks tearing up the net. They claimed the sharks to be at least 10' long, speculating due to the clarity of the water. They watched for a few minutes but could not keep track of all the sharks.

Was watching a Great White special before the Sox game last night and they were playing with them in 55 degree water.
