Hi Everyone! I'm organizing a crossing of the Strait of Messina in August 2004. The Strait of Messina is between Calabria and Sicily, Italy. The swim is approximately 3.3KM, but there are strong currents. We're organizing the swim with all the safety bells and whistles required by law, and by common sense. We've got a website up at: members.xoom.virgilio.it/.../, but we're still working on it. I'll be tranlating it in English soon too. The date is still unsure because given the strong tide currents, we want to calculate it according to the moon phases to have the smoothest ride.
So, if anyone's interested, send me an email, and I'll let you know more details as they come up. This should be fun!

We've now fixed a date for the Strait of Messina swim:
August 8, 2004
We also have a new website up: Strait of Messina Swim
so check it out.
It's still in Italian (I've got to translate it into English - give me a couple of days)... but it will give you an idea of the location of the swim.
For any info, just contact me at:

Ciao from Florence!
