The Orca shark fishing boat, and a chum marker in the foreground. The infamous shark fishing vessel Orca was depicted in the film Jaws and as a sunken wreck in Jaws 2. Captained by the misanthropic, eccentric war veteran known simply among island locals as Quint, Orca was sunk off the coast of Martha's Vineyard following an extended fishing excursion in the summer of 1973.
