A 23'+ Basking shark washed up on the beach

[Mr. Sandman]

The shark was located 1/4 mile NW from Philben beach. It is pretty mangled up by now. In a couple days it is going to be pretty rank, I am wondering if they will haul the remains out to sea out of respect for the bikini clad beach goers .

Was the Kintner boy inside? Cool shark

If you look closely there is a 30' shark in the background.

Hmmm... Couldn't find it.

Wow. I wonder if it just could have died from old age? I saw one off race point swimming that was about that size.


That stretch of beach is near some pretty high end homes wonder how they will end up dealing with it?

I woke up late this AM and turned on the tube...The move "JAWS" was just ending. The final scene shows the guys kicking their way into the shore, then there is a final image where they are approaching the beach as the credits are rolling...they came ashore EXACTLY where this giant fish did. (really!!! what are the odds of that?)

(Jaws music...bum bum bump bum bum bum bump.)
