I just saw this:
"After swimming alone in a daring solo crossing of Lake Superior last August, and having set 14 records swimming across all five Great Lakes, ultra-marathon athlete Jim Dreyer announced on June 22 that he now has his sights on setting the world distance record for a continuous swim. Dreyer plans to begin his attempt on Friday, September 1st (weather permitting), making a minimum of 31 consecutive crossings of the turbulent Straits of Mackinac, while once again swimming unescorted."

Has there been a calculation of the Gulf Stream current for the Cuba swim and River swims (I imagine downriver)?
I'm sure these have aided some of the swims, although the swims whether with current or not are truly amazing.
