Batt Reef was the location where we encoiuntered this cranky shark - quite annoyed with us after I accidently bumped into it with the boat.
The three-meter long shark responded by chewing the pontoon to shreds during the following five minutes or so. Quite a worry at the time. We were some 26 km offshore too.
It's a lonely place. Just one other small boat was there and they saw what happened.
