Also, i just saw this in the paper.
From the Herald Sun
Shark pulls 10-year-old boy from boat in Stanley, North West Tasmania
The “freak” shark attack off the coast of Tasmania that saw a boy ripped from a boat has rocked a seaside town with locals saying shark sightings are rare, as more information on how the attack happened is revealed.
A Stanley fisherman has described the moment a 10-year-old boy was attacked by a shark as a “freak accident”.
The boy, from Tasmania’s North-West, was rushed to hospital with head, chest and arm wounds after a shark ripped him from a fishing boat and into the water.
Ambulance Tasmania on Friday afternoon said the boy and his father were aboard a six-metre vessel, 5km from shore at Stanley in the state’s North West, when a shark pulled the boy from the boat.
He was taken to the North West Regional Hospital after suffering lacerations to his arm and other cuts to his head and chest.
The boy’s father jumped into the water to help his son, at which point the shark swam away.
....and here I was thinking home schooling was stressful

Great Whites are known for their breaching, so it's possible the kid was hanging over the edge or who knows what?
It is estimated they can travel around 35+Km when breaching
Check this footage out:

The Breach on this one from NZ is at 6.37

I know this footage is from South Africa but after watching that there is no way I’d kayak in the ocean. I’ve seen a few kayaks encountering sharks on YouTube, definitely not for me.

Re: You can stick your Kayak's up your A***
When you're on a yak you're sitting on something that is 4-5m long so it's probably as big as the shark if not bigger. I'd definitely have a shark shield if I was fishing in South Australia because they get a lot of whites there but in Vic I don't feel in any danger.Troy McLure wrote: ↑Sun Jul 19, 2020 6:00 pmI know this footage is from South Africa but after watching that there is no way I’d kayak in the ocean.

I didn’t watch the video but I know this happens in South Africa too. You keep telling yourself that the yaks are 5 meters long. I’ll stick to the beach thanks.

I also recall Vic Hislop catching the biggest White shark in Victoria off Philip Island in the eighties. A kayak would be like a toothpick for this thing.
