Dear family and friends,
I did it! 12:29 Hours! It was the best swim of my life! I owe the success of this crossing to my fantastic support boat crew. They played a key role during this swim. Thanks Kim Howard, thanks Gary Bruce and thanks my dear father; Sr.Edison Peinado, Reg and Ray Brickell and Channel Swimming Association Observer, Mike.
