I guess I will have to get a bifocal snorkel mask for shark viewing!!

I got a presciption mask to see fish closer, but far away is now a problem.
Old age sucks!

Yeah I agree, but not while I'm in the water. I admire those amazing creatures when I go to Sea World or Atlantis Paradise Island in the Bahamas through that thick aquarium plastic, that's what I call a "far distance". I simply love the Peace of Mind behind the experience.

I guess I am the odd ball out. I love sharks and have always wanted to swim with them. I wont have my scuba certification by the time we sail - so I wont be able to go on the feeding trip with Stuarts Cove, but next trip, I will be on the bottom with them.

I am even considering (although this is MUCH different) - going up to the Georgia Aquarium when I do get certified so I can swim with the Whale Sharks - my favorite of all the sharks. The do have other sharks (hammerhead, nurse, black tip) in there but don't think they have a mako or bull shark in there

You're not alone! I think they're beautiful (if dangerous!) creatures and I'd love to swim with them (while respecting them, of course!). I don't have anywhere close to a scuba certification, though, so for now I do only enjoy them from the safety of behind the glass at aquariums, but I'm going back to the Bahamas in November, so you never know!

Thank a lot!
