Big boat + big waves = scary.
Little board + big shark = stupid.  |

Killer wave pics.......This was what I was trying to visualize when I read "The Perfect Storm", (good book, shitty movie!).
I've seen that shark in the wave pic a bunch of places and if you look at the tail it seems like it has a horizontal tail (dolphin). The dolphins come in and play in the waves like that with us here in the summer. It's so cool to look over while riding a wave and see their big staring at ya! |

Dr. Evil, aren't there white sharks in SoCal? I think I remember hearing that when I lived there.

QUOTE This was what I was trying to visualize when I read "The Perfect Storm", (good book, shitty movie!). The Perfect Storm was an amazing book, I read it in one sitting, then again I did a fair share of that type of fishing so the story hit close to home.... I still have friends that go out on the water for or month or so |
