If you think Narragansett is great white shark free then do yourself a favor and don't speak to anyone working on the water in the area. There was a large one inside the Harbor of Refuge last summer, several have been caught in the fish traps, and likely many more that don't make the news.
Toby, Dave Hammock of Murats was fishing Deep Hole one night. This was back when you could keep 16" Bass. He had several on a stringer that was hooked to his wader belt. A "log" kept bumping his leg and finally he turn on his light and there was a shark feeding on the stripers on the stringer. This was probably in the 70s. Never bit him but he was wearing the old Greylight waders so the shark couldn't smell him.

No boat, back in the suds.
