Last week’s Broulee Ocean swim.

 

Sue provides the following report and pics for last week’s Broulee ocean swim. “There was a small contingent of Mollymook Ocean Swimmers, including Jill from Canberra, Wendy’s daughter Mel from Wollongong and a former Mollymook swimmer, Anne Marie White!

It was a good day, with warm water of 23.7 degrees and a light swell. The course was meant to be 1.4 kms but ended up as 1.69 kms due to the positioning of buoys to avoid rips.

Broulee Surf Club did a terrific job of hosting this popular event, with coffee and a BBQ to finish off a great day”.
