edit: He's made it :applaud:
Irishman Steve Redmond is near completion of his Molokai Channel swim. He's 2 miles out with the current now, finally, in his favor. Go Steve!
If he completes Molokai, he'll have swum 6 of the 'Oceans Seven', with only the 12 mile Tsugaru Strait remaining.

Most Molokai updates are occurring on his facebook page:

Off and on, they are updating Molokai progress via their SPOT:

Much more info (e.g Steve Redmond's Cook Strait swim last week) is available
on fellow Irishman Donal Buckley's website http://www.loneswimmer.com
Steve, Donal and many other very accomplished OW swimmers live on Ireland's south coast, near Cork. http://sandycoveswimmers.com/
Go Steve!
yeah, what is that quality? endurance, guts, grit, perseverance, heart? whatever it is, if you look at his various swims, it seems integral, and he has it in god-like proportions.
masochism?
One has to do something with one's life.
Or it could be the Nutso gene.

Huge congratulations to Steve!
