A massive white shark, the largest ever tagged by OCEARCH in the northwestern Atlantic, has been spotted swimming offshore Jacksonville Beach. This isn’t just any shark; it’s “Contender,” a 13.8-foot, 1,652.8-pound mature male, BUT GOOD NEWS! He’s swimming well off shore, about 45 miles off Jacksonville Beach!

I’ve been in radio here in Jax, playing country music for a long time, but I’m now trading my cowboy hat in for a lovely tiara & I’m excited to be on Easy 102.9.
