"Swimmer with dodgy hand position" at 8:03 to 8:11, red cap, dark goggles

Malabar to Little Bay ocean swim 2.7k
This turned out to be quite a challenging swim
It was the first year this swim was run over the full distance from beach to beach
The first part from Malabar beach to the south headland of Long Bay was a long 1k+ swim in sheltered water. Then into a good sized north-easterly swell as we passed the headland. Pitched and rolled around by the swell along the cliffs, then into Little Bay. Swam through a huge school of little fish (I think yellowtail) off the headland
Time 60:55
