Television pictures received here in N.Z. show a yellow fibre glass river
boat, with bite marks on the white hull.


So the fellow fish theory has to include a white fish as well. Unless, of
course, the sharp lept before it bit!


Same pictures showed skin abrasions on the paddlers thigh.


Cheers - Bazza

Good call, Bazza :-)

Yellow fish theory also has to include solid red kayaks as well as 
solid white as indicated by other reported incidents - Ken, what color 
was your boat?  Hey wait, the guy with the red kayak's name was also
Ken!  Maybe sharks don't like the name Ken!  Oh... and Paul.  :-) 

Jackie (who thinks yum yum theory is dumb dumb theory)
