For my Tourista Friends. We have a new water attraction at the Cape beach, give or take 30 miles!!!..



BREVARD COUNTY, Fla. —Cue the Jaws music. Central Florida's favorite great white shark Katharine pinged less than half a mile from the beach near Canaveral National Seashore early Friday morning.

According to a map provided by research group OCEARCH, the shark pinged about 600 yards from the shore.

The shark was last tracked in Central Florida back in May.The shark then then took a trip to the Gulf of Mexico.

OCEARCH has been tracking Katharine since August 2013 when she was tagged in Cape Cod, Mass.

Researchers said Katharine usually stays a few miles off shore, but they will alert local beaches if she comes too close.

Rest assured, we are working on several protective solutions..

YMMV :D

I swear,, It's part of the DARPA Project. If the sharks go off script, they have a recovery plan..

Kathrine was off of Lauderdae about a year ago and scared the bejesus out of a spearfisherman (see video below). She made the papers all over the state, that's about the time I got the Shark Traker App. You shoul see her tracks! :eek:
