5 Island sea swim 15.08.09
Charity sea swim was performed on Saturday by swimming from shore to Þerney (Therney), Lundey (Puffin island), Viðey (Videy), Engey, Akurey and shore.

12 peoples started the swim and 5 swimmers completed the swim.

My rescue team HSSK supplied 2 safety boats (Zodiac MK III and Parker Baltic 900 ICE-SAR).

I think it would have to be a very, very good cause before you could coerce me into doing that. Well done to everyone involved.
