For adults who want to swim more efficiently be it for fun, for fitness or for racing... This would have 2 advantages.

Founded in 2007, Red Top Swim was created by two swimmers with two very different backgrounds.

πŸŠβ€β™€οΈ WHEN SWIMMING A CHANNEL, CARRY WITH YOU THE LOWEST NUMBER OF PEOPLE POSSIBLE ON BOARD! 🚀🚫

πŸ§‘β€βœˆοΈ In addition to your pilot and essential crew member (your coach πŸ“£), avoid taking many extra people.
