Simone Bayne, on her way to winning a GOLD Medal at the NSW Country Surf Titles

 

Mollymook Ocean Swimmers, Gold Medals at NSW Country Surf Titles

 

Another wonderful Country Surf Championships event was held over this past weekend at Cape Hawk (one-mile beach), Forster.

How time flies. As a teenager, Simone Brayne (nee Everett) was one of the foundation members of the Mollymook Ocean swim group back in 1999. For a number of years she was a regular competitor at the various ocean swim events throughout NSW travelling regularly with the likes of John Sarich (formerly Smeeth), Bobby White, Peter Cooke, Kim Wilson etc. Twenty plus years on, married with a family, SimoneĀ  continues to do what she enjoys most, swimming in the ocean. Still a regular swimmer in the annual Mollymook Ocean swims, today she spends her spare time with husband and children heavily involved in the Mollymook Surf Club. And of course competing at country and NSW State title events, this year entering and winning the 40 to 49 masters age category.

A convincing winner, a wonderful lady of outstanding character, with family including Mum and Dad travelling up from Mollymook for the event.

Ed in the 40-49 age Surf Board race. (A true gentleman, he allowed all the other competitors to get in front of him during the hustle and bustle at the start, and then paddled by them one by one to finished just outside the place getters)
