A successful complement of English Channel solo swimmers enjoyed their final swim of the season as they covered a comparatively shorter but challenging distance from Corsica to Sardinia.
The swimmers who who set off from Corsica included Sakura Hingley, Mark Fabik, Tori Thorpe and Nick Adams. Crew support was provided by Kristy McIntyre, also an EC soloist.
'Tommy'/Tommaso and his crewman Paolo were in charge of the boat and course which was in the region of 13kms. The water was a brisk 21C with many jellyfish in the area making the warm waters a challenge. It took 4 hours and 20 minutes to complete the swim with Sakura, Mark and Nick swimming all the way, whilst Tori swam a respectable distance.
Congratulations all for your many swims over the summer, but now at the tail end of the season the main focus for these swimmers is a nice Sardinian supper and some rest.
