We got scouted by a white tip a couple of times. Hurrying back to the boat seemed prudent!
Rick Maxwell replied:
Oh yeah! White Tips are Pelagic and have been responsible for many attacks on shipwrecked sailors (see "USS Indianapolis.") I have to admit, when this big fella cruised by I got out of the water, pronto! I love an adventure but sometimes you just have to draw a line.Thank you for the feature, Barbie. Aloha, Max

Well, I'm not sure of the braveness but it sure did give me pause to reconsider the merits of 'The Food Chain.' But, we enter their world and... Cheers, Max
