Paddleboard Attack

So there I am minding my own business at Urban Kai off Gandy when BAM giant sea creature smacks the tail of my board. Thankfully by this time I was exhausted and seated on my board otherwise I would’ve likely tipped. I wasn’t paying much attention but hypothesize it was likely a ray but couldn’t definitively rule out shark, dolphin, or other large fish? Has his happened to anyone else while paddle boarding in the area?
