Please read through the Event/Safety Plan and the Kayaker Safety Briefing. Knowledge of these two documents helps promote the safety of all swimmers, kayakers and volunteers.
The water temperature during the swim is expected to be between 55 and 60 degrees F. Wetsuits are required and will be checked before the swim to make sure they provide the proper insulation. No shorties will be allowed. Anyone wishing to do the swim without a wetsuit must obtain written permission from the event organizers when they register. Proof of completing multiple open water swims for a minimum duration of 2.5 hours in sub 60 degree water is required for anyone wishing to swim without a wetsuit.
