Hi its the phantom blogger again. What a great morning, I don’t need to say any more than what Julie put on the Blog,it was just superb with clear cool water and no swell with a beautiful sunny day. According to Magic Seaweed the low swell conditions are here for the long run and there are even a couple of days coming up where there will be NO SWELL AT ALL!! Check it out on Magic Seaweed yourself. It was a record morning this morning for some reason?? 63 swimmers, it seemed reminiscent of the Cole Classic, swimming over to Shelly. What would be terrific would be a really good record for winter like 100 swimmers. How about everyone makes a big effort for tomorrow morning??

Great way to start the day. Clear, cool, crisp water. I tell myself “Embrace the cold”.
