36 Bold & Beautiful Swimmers. Great swim in the chop and swell. We’re hoping to take a few group pictures of B&B tomorrow morning for our 2011 calendar so if you’d like to feature in the calendar please make sure you come in the morning ! A group of B&B have their Bronze Medallion exam...

21 Bold & Beautiful Swimmers. 7 swimmers and photographer Tim on the board for Bolderdash – big swell, wind and chop but a great swim. Both Tim and Michael saw a whale swim past us up near Queensie really quite close to us… or were they hallucinating, I hope it wasn’t one of us !...

15 Bold & Beautiful Swimmers. Only the stalwarts got to experience the beautiful drizzly swim with the bumps at Shelley followed by 5 seriously frisky whales that were breaching clear out of the water – it certainly had “WOW factor” – check out the photos bearing in mind they’re taken with a phone, not bad...

33 Bold & Beautiful Swimmers. 8 swimmers and 1 board paddler (Tim) enjoyed ‘Bolderdash’ this morning, it really was a beautiful swim to Queensie and back with a magnificent sunrise – just magic ! The rest of the group had a lovely swim to Shelley and back at 7am with great water and beaming sunshine,...

10 Bold & Beautiful Swimmers braved the rain and surf with some fantastic fancy dress outfits for our Melbourne Cup swim.

27 Bold & Beautiful Swimmers. Bolderdash swims started this morning with 11 of us getting in the water at 5.50am for the 3km swim to Queenscliff and back, a decent wave but nice out the back, we even swam over the shark nets…! For those of you who are interested, Bolderdash will be at 5.50am...

34 Bold & Beautiful Swimmers. A scary swim for Halloween – big, messy, consistent surf and lots of chop. Kelly has her Bronze exam next week but she put her life saving skills to good use this morning when Anne W & Linda freaked out as they got pummeled by some big waves as they...

47 Bold & Beautiful Swimmers. A sure ole choppy swim this morning, nice and bumpy, with plenty of water being swallowed. Btw, there was a really frisky whale jumping right out of the water at the Bower yesterday lunch time. Water Temperature 20.2 degrees. Sunrise 5.57am. Sunset 7.21pm. Low Tide: 7.48am. High Tide: 2.17pm.

54 Bold & Beautiful Swimmers. Well… Mr Whale wrote to us on the blog last night, sadly it would appear that he is more adept at writing than swimming from Manly to Shelly Beach at 7am !!! The number of swimmers is up again which is great. Even without Mr Whale we had a lovely...
