Re: 5.30 hours - Andy Peck, 4 September 2010 12:00
I have just been in for 30 minutes to support Wayne in the water. I had a wet suit and fins, so it wasn't cold for me but I bet Wayne is feeling the cold after nearly 6 hours. The water is clean but murky so I couldn't see Wayne through the water. The choppy waves are big enough to make swimming difficult, and the wind is bringing the waves straight into Wayne's face so it feels like swimming up a river. Respect for the man. It is a massive challenge.
