Not really worry about sharks in the harbor, just in case i am out in the open ocean, but that will take some times before i do that, and maybe after i upgrade my kayak into a offshore version, a cobra explorer is kind of small to go too far, but thanks for the advise for the dogs..will keep distance from them~

I wouldn't worry about sharks at all, does your kayak look like a seal

I do think I saw the Great White a month and a half ago when he was hanging out San Diego.

Plus in a place like La Jolla their are so many seals, sea lions, and swimmers that the sharks would much prefer them as a meal as opposed to plastic.

William, Jim Sammons did a video where he jumped into a pool in various types of waders and such. Anyways, bib style waders and a dry top did fine.

Well there it is there! Awesome video thanks for sharing that. It def cleared up any worries I had about the "deadly waders" myth. That's a very similar setup I have.
