In the Marine Corps we had to tread water for 15 minutes with full packs, but it was in a nice blue pool with no waves, no jelly fish, and no sharks to fear...Just the drill instructor...She is amazing.

Naut: I second what Ciel has said...

She never stopped trying (and that's an interesting point about her name...)

I just heard yesterday that she was attempting it again...

I think this was her third attempt.

Hurray for her determination, and finally, her success!

Personally, I didn't think she'd make it again.  But, she fooled me.

She is made the the stuff of pioneers that established our roots in our countries of the New World. I applaud her for one jelly fish sting and I am out of the water right quick and I could never swim more than a mile or for more than an hour. I salute her with you Sir Nautikos..Prof. extraordinary!!

She just never gave up. I don't think I'd make it half a mile...
