Surf an' Sharks




Ten more Great White sharks were spotted swimming in Santa Cruz waters on Wednesday, yesterday. This is in addition to the possible sighting at Cowells on Saturday. The recent sighting is most credible coming from the Pacific Shark Research Center. The sharks were young, between five and 12-feet long, according to Dave Ebert of the center.

It has not kept most people from going into the water, especially surfers. Santa Cruz Little Guards, however, did not get wet at Cowells Beach on Monday. A decent south swell is running in Santa Cruz today and surfers are going for it with big smiles. So far, no harm no foul. The long-lined waves are too hard to resist.

"There's no in between waves," said one notorious local, "but if you catch a set wave it's funner than shit." Some surfers know how to turn a phrase.
