An international outcome for the 2025 Peter Pan cup.

American Dave Bill romped home, followed by Canadian James Norton, Irishman John Tierney and Australian Nick Hungerford.  And from Nueva Caledonia, President Laure Latham delivered her speech outlining the history of the race and the Peter Pan connection.

The final start list for the Christmas Day race 2025 is published below. Only the pre-qualified swimmers named on the list will be allowed to race.

As always, the race will start at 9 am sharp. If you wish to view the race, please try and arrive by 08:30 as, judging by recent years, the bankside tends to be full of spectators.

Thank you.

The Kelly clan were out in force to watch Natasha Wake win the Bob Kelly winter series to take home the historic and magnificent Bernard Fettes cup.

It felt relatively mild ...  7.7c in the water, 4c out.

The Bernard Fettes cup will be presented by the Kelly brothers (Sean, Duff and Jesse) at the end of the series on Saturday 20December.

The series also acts as qualification for the Christmas Day race for the Peter Pan cup.
