Rylock Series, Race 6, December 19, 2024

Lucas Bell made life hard for series leader Terry Bone as he showed up for his second swim of the season this week.

His goal had been to follow the lead swimmer, but he eased into the lead from the start and was never headed, winning by 16 seconds.

Mia Pugh just keeps getting better and had her best result yet as she hit the shore in third place ahead of Ben Marshall, Jasper Sneddon, Austen Dean and Lilly Claridge.

Fraser Hill and Hamish Neill were next, ahead of Nia Linyard, the third woman to finish.

Here’s the results
