2025 Coghlan Beach (Formerly Gashouse Cove)

March 1, 2025

We originally planned for a swim starting from Gashouse Cove, but due to work being done on the docks in Gashouse, we opted for the tried and true west-to-east route starting at Coghlan Beach. Conditions for the club swim were a tad choppy, but the flood was strong and pushed swimmers in for fast finishes.

Thank you to all the volunteers and pilots who made the swim possible.
