If the shark attacks just use your bang stick. If that doesn't work use
the backup bang stick. You can't be self-sufficient without your own
motor, stowed raft, bang stick, e-purb, and CB radio in the ocean.

Bang sticks are also good for locking you into that reef head and
opening up the crevices where the lobsters hide.
