I think this is a subject that needs to be fully aired out & discussed in the OW & Marathon swimming community. I believe sharks should be considered as an objective risk to be weigh before a swim, just like weather, rough water conditions, jellies etc.. Unfortunately it seems that once a swim is successful, an historical precedent is set for all future swims.
100% agree. Since Steve M. was part of the crew, I'd like to hear his perspective.
