The U.S. Coast Guard in Boston has a message for July Fourth holiday boaters in the seas off Massachusetts: Don’t become lunch.
A 7-foot great white was spotted last week near the Stellwagen Bank national marine sanctuary, according to a statement issued by the Coast Guard today. In the past few years, sightings have been reported of sharks ranging from 6 to 15 feet, easily big enough to capsize a small boat or kayak.
