Via the Times-Picayune here, there’s a 15+ foot, 2,078 pound great white shark (a female named Unama’ki) cruising of late off the Louisiana coast. The image above is from her tracking plot updating live on Ocearch here. We have a buddy who runs offshore not too far from her last position (weather and water conditions allowing) now and again in an ancient 13.5 foot Boston Whaler skiff – he might need a bigger boat.
