Fish Friday Great white sharks are incredible predators of the ocean—carnivorous fish that can live more than 70 years, grow up to 21 feet long, and weigh as much as 4,500 pounds. Unlike most fish, sharks are made of cartilage instead of bone, placing them in a group called elasmobranchs alongside rays, skates, and sawfish. If you visit the North Carolina Maritime Museum in Beaufort, you’ll spot a model of an impressive local legend: the great white shark caught just off Beaufort Inlet in September 1984 by the crew of the shark‑fishing boat “Alligator.” This giant measured over 15 feet and weighed 2,080 pounds. It became a coastal sensation, drawing thousands of spectators when it was displayed along the Morehead City waterfront.

After extensive preparation, the move took just 23 days. The lighthouse was re-lit at its new location on November 13, 1999.
