First, I'd poo my shorts, Then I'd definately keep him at the stern of the boat, give him more to bite into before getting me. If he bit the boat, I'm sure he'd go clean through it. Then I'd have to hop out of the boat and start going at his eyes with the paddle. As he opened his mouth wide to try and bite I'd shove the paddle in length wise to hold his mouth open just like in the movies. With the shark disabled with the paddle I'd hop on his back and put him in a choke hold until he lost consciousness. Once unconscious I could swim to shore at my leisure.

Gotta agree with Casey. I wouldnt move as they are drawn to movement. But they are curious about things and like to bite to find out if its good. Maybe if he bit the boat it wouldnt apeal to him and hed leave. Or, Id be a heck of a messy snack!
Scary picture, that would be most un fun.

That makes the case for Kevlar kayaks and Kevlar swim trunks! 
I'd like to see the rest of the pictures after that one was taken. A scary moment if the picture isn't a PhotoShop job.

Scary.

Stop moving definitely
and bring a bag of poo to fling at sharks in the future
Maybe just grease the outside of the kayak with a poo coat before each trip too
