Sharks !

After two relaxing days ashore we made our way east past the island of Puerto Rico towards Tortola. Once in the BVI's we fueled up at Sopers Hole Marina and then sailed towards Norman islands where we anchored off a quiet Marine preserve.


Swimming to shore we discovered an amazing variety of coral fish that followed us in curiosity. 


My friend Stephane challenged me to swim with sharks which were circling our boat -which apparently got attracted by our under deck lighting. Since they were toothless sand sharks (still measuring about 3.5') it took me some courage but I jumped into the water and won the bet - and survived to tell this hero's tale ...
