Good job - some more trivial questions?

Where was the shark caught that was used for the canadian film opening (on ice in front of the theater) ?
Where were the beach scenes filmed?

Cheers,

Frank Mundus guided Donnie Braddock to capture a 3,427 lb White Shark back in August of 1986. I had a tuna charter scheduled with Al Ristori in Montauk the next day, and got to see that fish, up close and personal. They had a guard watching it, to prevent souvenir hunters from making off with its teeth!

"Where were the beach scenes filmed?"

You didn't specify which beach scenes so...

Geographically -Martha's Vineyard. Specifically Sylvia State Beach (raft scene/shark scene with rock jetty in back round....). Not sure but I think some beach scenes may have been shot at other locations on the island.

Also "Orca" can still be seen in Menemsha.

The licence plate found in the Tiger shark was from Louisiana .

The "Aurora" was the research vessel he was scheduled to go on after he was through at Amity. I'm talking about the small "research vessel" he and Brody took a ride in when they found Ben Gardener's boat....and head....
