Hello Boston area swimmers!
My relay team is seeking an escort boat for the Boston Light Swim. I was so grateful to Lyn for helping me find a kayak escort for the Great South Bay Swim (NY) a month earlier, so I'm hopeful this request will be met with similar success. :) I also posted on the Marathon Swimmers Forum "!Crew and Observer Requests" thread. So trying to cover different bases
We're a team of four swimmers, in case that affects what size boat we would need (this is my first relay swim and first time having to get a motorized boat instead of a kayak).
If you or someone you know can possibly hook us up with a pilot, we'll all be grateful--and willing to pay a fair price. If you're able to help, can you please PM me? We can then take the rest of the conversation to email.
Thanks and good swimming to all!
Thanks for the link, Lyn! Although this swim requires motorized escort boats, maybe this group will know of those with boats that fit this need. I'll check it out.
Hi again,
You might try posting in a local forum for paddlers. Here's one: http://www.nspn.org/forum/.
They're a very active group and you may have good luck there. There are also several kayak
outfitters in the area.
