Browns Bay start for the 3.8 km swim - Photo, ScottieTPhoto 

It was a perfect day for Ocean swimming on New Years Day in Auckland city. The wind was a slight one blowing from the south west which meant the east coast of Auckland was flat and smooth. No wonder 55 swimmers turned up for the first swim of the year in the world. There was no doubt the weather had a hand in the good turn out today, the largest in the 7 years of this swim. Only four took on the 2 km swim, a new distance added to get more people involved. The rest opted for the long version, 3.8 km from Browns Bay to Long Bay. 

Nick Shanks swam the fastest in 53min 45sec, he now holds the record for the distance. Terri Bidwell was the first woman to finish in 57min 38sec. Jono Ridler was the first non-wetsuit swimmer to cross in 57min 28secs another record.
