Where Three Anchor Bay 
When 2009/12/07 07:00 am to 07:00 pm

Big hearted swimmer to brave huge tankers and toothy monsters in mega swim Theodore Yach, one of SA’s most accomplished cold water, long-distance swimmers, is preparing for the challenge of his life – a 29.5km, day-long swim in bone-chilling water from Cape Town around Robben Island and back to raise funds for disadvantaged swimmers.

Yach, 51, will attempt to become the first person to swim the hazardous route starting from, and ending at Three Anchor Bay and swimming around iconic Robben Island. He will wear only a regulation costume, cap and goggles and faces the real threat of succumbing to hypothermia. The attempt is aimed at raising funds for the Cadiz Open Water Swimming Development Trust which supports disadvantaged swimmers and promotes swimming in these communities.

Yach will brave up to 12 hours in shark infested waters which, at between 12 and 14 degrees Celsius, are infamous for sometimes thwarting even the strongest swimmers’ attempts to cross from Robben Island to the mainland.

Need to know? Follow his progress or make a donation on the Theodore Yach Ultra Swim at www.facebook.com. The precise date of the attempt will be announced a day or two in advance.
