It was onboard the Bourbon Oceanteam 101 working block 18 off Angola. Wasn't pretty but wish we had taken more photos....added a bit of excitement to an otherwise boring shift!

The riggers lobbed it over the side, the chef was from Aberdeen so prob didn't have that much experience with shark dishes. Still, some sharkfin soup would have been good.....

The shark looks like a Porbeagle, they make good money and eat really well steaked and grilled or bbq'd with garlic butter slapped on.
