Tick!

Sailing the gap at Sandy Point yesterday morning and though I saw a funny looking seal just behind the break, went for a closer look and it was a bronze colored SHARK!! A bit shorter than my 76L Evo (guessing 1.5m), it was just below the surface cruising towards Waratah Bay. Guessing it was a Bronze Whaler. Knew it was time to leave it alone when it turned around and started following me, wouldn't you know it, dropped my next gybe.

Andy and Chris Ackland witnessed the beasty and survived to tell as well. Unfortunately no GoPro on hand but eerie to know that they cruise the surf break at Sandy..... Will be a bit more edgy surfing last light from now I think.

Didn't stop sailing, powered up on the 3.7m but waves were tiny.
