You're going to need a bigger boat

It's that time of year again. The local and national media are reporting a great white shark sighting off Cape Cod with obligatory references to the movie Jaws.

A good photo helps make the story.

Walter Szulc, a first-time kayaker off Nauset Beach on Cape Cod, had a close encounter the other day. He paddled quickly to safety.

Reminds one of Chief Brody's foreboding line in Jaws.



If you want to know everything about the movie, and I mean everything, a fun book titled Jaws: Memories from Martha's Vineyard was published last summer and tells the whole story.
