Van Laman of Dee Why with a 7-ft whaler shark speared by Ben Cropp off Coolangatta using 1 12-gauge shotgun cartridge. This day Ron Cox of the Tweed Heads Porpoise Pool, together with Ben and Van, dived on the shark-notorious Nine-Mile Reef. In her newly adopted sport of skindiving, Van is not scared by the sharks who swim around her.
