I'm sure the sharks could've managed quite well finding food on their own; they didn't need the old man to provide for them.
One could make a case for the killing of the sharks to be reasonable once the marlin was killed. Killing them is secondary. Frankly, although I had enough awareness of the story to know it didn't happen, I would've been just fine with the sharks overturning the boat and ... karma.
(I'm not really bloodthirsty. But I don't like the glorification of killing animals.)
