this shark did not do anything to them. it just cruised around and checked them out...
lucky yes...
irresponsible ... no

the chances of death in a yack is very very very low... its just poor education the leads people to think this is dangerous

I believe it actually tipped on of the kayakers into the water, have a read of the report on the Australian kayak fishing forum.

Don't get me wrong though i don't think they were irresponsible just very very lucky

Hey Guys

If you want to do it in kayaks then go for it, dont worry about what I think. And Pinhead said its perfectly safe so definitely jobs right. Just maybe dont hang body parts over the side?

Cheers

So Chimo and Therapy because kayaking offshore may be dangerous we are irresponsible and shouldnt do it

Where would Australia be if the 1st settlers had that attitude?

No Duane, if I thought yakking offshore was irresponsible, I would have said "yakking offshore is irresponsible". Spending more than you earn is irresponsible. Unprotected sex with a Bangkok hooker is irresponsible. I just pointed out the difference between road fatalities and shark attacks. I swim in the surf and if I get bit then it's my bad luck because I know they are there. I believe in people making their own choices,so if you yak offshore, go ahead and all the best. Looks like a productive way to fish and exercise to boot.
As for the early settler reference, I thought Australia was built on the back of the sheep, not the yak!
