Anyone on here tried it? Maybe with a club or group?

I'm not on about paddling around in a river for 5 minutes - I'm on about proper swimming where you get into a lake or the sea and spend some time in the water.

I have a 25 yards breast stroke certificate achieved at Dykey skool baths.

Why…I got wet for a living years ago and thought it a pain in the arse….water proofs were never sea water proof. :laugh:

Yup, water is wet. If you go into wild water it’s cold too.
