I’m going to need a lot of help with the logistics of this effort.
I’ll need at least one person in a boat running close to me. Ideally, it would be something other than a gas or diesel motor, but I don’t think I’m going to have a choice, as I’m running out of time (and options).
We’ve looked into a houseboat as well. This option might prove to be more efficient, as it would prevent us from having to keep going back and forth to park a boat, but we’ll also have to figure out how to get a support person (or staff) back to shore at the end of each swim.
That said, if anyone out there has recommendations for a reliable houseboat rental company that has reasonable rates (a free sponsorship will be offered for a big reduction in price!), please let me know.
I’ll also need a lifeguard to monitor progress. I may even need a medical professional on hand.
As you can see, there are a lot of factors at play here.
Having never done this before, I’m open to any recommendations / considerations that I should keep in mind as the clock winds down to the final start date.
