Re: Butterfly solo crossing: boat, skipper, and paddler requ

Paddlers are required to attend the briefing and have practiced paddling with their swimmers. Skippers. Boat skippers are the unsung heroes of the swim. Your role begins when you accept to assist a solo or team of swimmers to complete the swim months before the actual event.

Re: Looking for a boat, skipper and paddler

Each swimmer or team requires a support boat 5-12 metres in length with a qualified skipper, and is strongly encouraged to have a support paddler to accompany them .

Re: Accommodation Available

'Halls' are in scarce supply and are therefore generally only available to first year students. Living in halls give students time to settle into their new environment and make friends before moving into privately rented accommodation in their second year.

For yacht owners. Registration and posting is free if you are looking for a skipper or crew. Find amateur and professional crew for short or long term voyages.

Re: Swimmer available for 2018 swima

Exact selection criteria for the Pan Pacs team has not been made available yet, but the top three swimmers in almost every event at Nationals usually earn an invite, with the top four in the 100 and 200 free getting invited for relay purposes.
