Uh Oh Things are rotten at the yacht club – wind, waves and generally nasty weather, so sadly, tonight’s swim is cancelled. Things are looking much more positive next week – see you then.   There are signs of increased activity in the water as swimmers get back into the swing of things. It’s still brisk, but slowly warming up. …

To the delight of some, the reduced field – the lowest this summer – gave the chance to pick up some points. Featured photo: Jude Vincent and Jane Alloway were very happy …

After a look at the tide tables, it doesn’t seem that there’s one suitable for another beach swim this season. We’ll definitely put some on the season for next year. We had 156 swimmers, in perfect conditions. Here’s …

The long swim covered just over 1000m, the short swim about 500m. Nobody had it easy, but it was achievable for most people, leaving …
