The lack of sharks in Bahia Asuncion is not all positive. The sea lions are quite overpopulated.
One fisherman told us about a reported sighting a few years ago and it really caused panic----
Even though the sea lions cause the lobster fishermen a lot of problems, I don't think a shark would have a chance if it dared to show up around
there.
Then again, there are no guarantees.

You would need a sheltered cove to launch that thing or those pacific waves could make it tough. That trail in San Roques to the watchman's house
passes several such spots. Outcast sells shoulder straps now that let's you carry it all like a backpack. I tie my fins and the rest to D rings and
off you go.

at the bajaboy weenie roast last night, I heard a story that some fisherman caught a big great white shark just off the beach around Turtle Bay
somewhere....hmmm....so much for my no shark theory.

On second thought, maybe I'll scratch float tube off
my list.

Ah, it sounds like the shark did not live to tell about it----it is gone, so nothing to worry about.

he'd spit you out and you'd bleed to death before you could reach the beach, assuming you still had your legs.....

I got the Outcast Fat Cat this year. I have to use boat cushions to support my back as the foam seat is too long for my thighs. Having said that, it
is a great tube. Another factor you might consider is that the Outcast does not have a restraining mechanism so one could theoreticaly slip off of it.
This could be an issue in waves.
