strange sight - wellfleet harbor

Saturday around 1pm, my wife and I were walking on the beach near Wellfleet harbor, in front of the bookstore restaurant. My wife notices a large black fin out in the water. It was fairly big, and was definitly feeding, swimming aggressivly. The fin was droopy, and not straight and solid, almost looked like the wing of a large ray, and it was moving up and down. We watced it for @ 5 minutes and then it disappeared. Sort of looked like a shark, but becasue the fin did not seem firm, Im not sure. I've never seen an ocean sunfish, but have heard they are mistaken for sharks, not sure they move this erratically.

Any thoughts? I;ve been thinking about it all weekend wondering what it could be?
