surf lifeguard Dublin

So we expected a quiet mid week swim, low tide.

We got more than we expected. Surf, yup surf on Claremount, on a low tide. awesome.

balance of the torps arrived this evening along with the installation of the reel & line.

There are few things more fun than a large gang of Dublin Lifeguards and lifesavers grabbing boards for an unexpected surf lifesaving session, few things more fun than an open water swim overrunning by a couple of hours, few things more fun than packing by torchlight, few things better than unpacking lifeguard rescue buoys, this swim will go down in history!

many thanks to Richard, Peter and Louise for donating gear. appreciated.

and finally a new seal on the beach. very unexpected.
