Have you swam any OW where you could see the bottom? Where was it and how deep was it? What was down there? See anything interesting?

  • Pensacola, Fla., swim from May 25: must have had nice underwater views! Did anybody swim it and see anything? I had originally planned on doing that swim, but had to cancel due to a family commitment here in Ohio. I will do it next year when they add the first double-crossing of the bay for a 10K swim. Having lived there for a number of years through high school and about 8 years after college, I've swum in many places in the area. This swim is across the large bay along a bridge. The water visibility in this body of water is more like a lake -- about 5 feet -- so there won't be much to see. Swimming out in the gulf is a different story, but then I always had mixed emotions about the visibility I had swimming there. Ignorance is bliss.
