2 Boats And Skipper available 2019 RCS

I have 2 boats and skippers available for this years Rottnest Channel Swim.

The first boat is suitable for a solo, duo or team of 4. It is a 8.2m Grady White center console with large amounts of seating around the boat. It has a flushing toilet inside the console and reasonable amount of storage space under the bow seating.
It has a 3 step boarding ladder on its port.
I skipper this boat and have done multiple crossings. I am a very experienced skipper with well over 3000 hrs on the water. I hold an RST and a Coxswain 1. All my past crossing teams have thoroughly enjoyed the experience onboard my boat.

The second boat is suitable for a solo or duo. It is a 6.7 Bertram half cab. It has plenty of deck space for seating and ample storage up front. It has a 2 step boarding ladder on its starboard.
This skipper has done multiple crossings as crew member for me and is his first as a skipper. He has plenty of sea hours. He is safety conscious and holds an RST.

Both skippers will have one crew member onboard with them to help facilitate swimmers in and out of the water and to help ensure the safety of everyone onboard.
We have no arranged paddlers or craft so you would need to supply your own but i have done crossings without a paddler for a team of 4 before and no issues.

Regards
Travis

Hi Travis,

We are a local team looking to complete a duo this year.

We can both swim but would be relying on you and your crew for all the required boating /crossing skills. We would welcome your advice and experience on the day having had a few bumpy crossings in the past! We would be happy with either boat however the smaller boat is probably ample if it is still available.

Thanks Travis
