Trip Comments:

We had a wonderful morning with lots of sunshine but also with lots of nervous people on the boat. They soon found out that there was no need to be nervous as the sharks were very relaxed and that they were not interested in getting to the people in the cage. Visibility was the same as yesterday, approximately 1.5m and the water temperature was a little bit colder (14C) than it was yesterday. The first shark we spotted was a female and had a few parasite patches. She was close to 3.8m in length and moved away and came back a few times during the trip. Halfway through the trip Alfred, our bait handler, shouted out that he saw a big shark coming in. A few minutes later the big female was swimming circles around the boat and boy she was massive! We estimated her to be 5m in length and apart from being very long she was also very wide, one of the widest I have personally seen so far! At the very end Pieter decided to pay us a visit and we noticed that the scratches covering his gills are already healing. The scratches were not very deep so Pieter should be doing fine!
