Hello V.,

You might want to check the number of the verb in "has said"; also, what was "deep", around the lighthouse?

Best wishes,

Ah!

In that case, you could say:

1. The sharks have said that around the lighthouse the water was deep; therefore the kid was an experienced swimmer.

(I'm impressed by the sharks' deductive powers.)

Best wishes,
