Shark Details
Seen for 10 mins before heading round to Fenella.
Note from Jackie Hall: Manx Basking Shark Watch coordinator. This December sighting is very unusual but not unprecedented. Well done to Keith for spotting and photographing it. Most basking shark sightings reports are from April-September. We had a December sighting a few years ago. We were sceptical at first but then a satellite tag signal came from near where the shark had been seen!
