Great White Shark Attacks Inflatable Boat - Now What??

Paybacksays...

I am a nice shark
Not a mindless eatin' machine.
If I am to change this image, I must first change myself.
Fish are friends.
Not food.

Pledge says nothing about humans or rigid-hull inflatables.

The rigid-hull inflatable uses the tube more as a stabilizer than flotation. They only become necessary in rough seas or hard maneuvering. The tubes are attached to a short-sided fiberglass or aluminium hull, which provides the buoyancy. At the end, you can see them slowly making towards home.

Smaller Zodiacs use the tubes as the hull, with just a sheet of rubber hanging between the tubes as a floor, so when the tubes lose air they completely collapse. In order to carry more than 3-4 people, you need a rigid hull for strength. Otherwise it would just flop all over the place like an inflatable life raft.

It sucks when even after using your teeth you can't get your snacks out the package. Food companies really need to think about redesigning their products for the modern shark on the go.
