Amen! I'm used to sailing shoal waters off Ceday Key,Fl. and running aground.My 20 footer is a swing keel and drafts 18". We ran aground one aferrnoon in an area that had been deep water the week before.So, after dropping the rags, I went over to push us off again. Suddenly my Wife starts yelling."Out of the water quick! I see a fin! SHARK!SHARK!"

I took a quick look around as I clung to the bow pulpit and tried to keep my legs out of the water.Couldn't see a damn thing, so I dropped back in, pushed us off and cilmbed back aboard over the stern. It was only after I was aboard that I saw the fin too.It was attached to a 7-foot hammerhead! needless to say we left that vicinity promptly.It was the first and only fin I ever saw in the waters off Cedar Key.
