Subject: Gavins and Concern about GW sharks >>>FW: Trolling for Mr. Big
Date: Fri, 24 May 2002 16:00:13 -0700
A number of the people here in Northern California have been VERY concerned
about GREAT Whites, AKA "The Land Lord" while riding Gavins.
Apparently, someone is scootering outside a cage with the GWs and hasn't
seen much response..  OK, maybe that is like a guy on a Buddy "breather"
saying "see I'm still alive".
I must admit, that I have from time to time caught myself thinking of the
beast. Anyway, as much as you can trust antidotal evidence and/or the
Discovery Channel; I found the message from my friend strangely comforting.

SNIP>>>>> The Discovery Channel had a new special on Great
 Whites and a researcher who has been swimming
 outside
 the cage with them for years.  The really good news
 for all of you Gavin owners is that he actually
 scooters with them and they don't go bezerk.  They
 didn't even pay him any attention.  He stopped once
 and used the scooter to push off one, but the sharks
did not appear attracted to the electrical field or
 noise of the scooter.
<<<Snip


More from  Sully>>>>  The program was "White Sharks: Outside the
cage" it highlighted research biologist Mark Marks in
South Africa.  Although at the end of the program he
was moving to Guadalupe Island, Mexico.  It was on the
Discovery Channel - Canada.

It looks like I am going to be in the Yucatan for most
of the summer diving.  I am trying to work out the
details now.  It should be pretty sweet.
