Swim season change

Following a meeting between the Channel Swimming Association, Channel Crossing Association, Channel Swimming Pilotage Federation, Channel Swimming & Pilotage Services and Coastguards from France and the UK it has been agreed by all that the swim season will from now on be between 1st April and 31st October each year.

This is first and foremost to protect the safety and welfare of the swimmers and support craft involved. Swims outside of this period will not be accepted on the grounds of safety.

The British relay team 'Team Horizon' successfully completed their one-way swim in a time of 14 hrs and 50 mins when they landed at the base of the cliffs 1 mile south west of Cap Blanc at 16:40 hrs today (31/8/14) .

Congratulations to all six members, Jane Clarke, Kate Webster, Tracey Dowse, Lisa Paton, Deborah Thomas and Natalie Immelman who were on board 'Sea Leopard' with pilot Stuart Gleeson and Observer Keith Oiller - an excellent swim in conditions that were at times fairly challenging.
