Our Services
Introduction to Our Services and why you should choose us.
For those interested in undertaking an attempt of a Cook Strait crossing, all the information you need to know is right here.
As any marathon swimmer knows, our sport is a team one. No swim of this magnitude could possibly be accomplished without a team of skilled, motivated individuals all working together. The Cook Strait team are highly qualified and experienced in exactly what each is to perform.
PHILIP RUSH, a two time double strait crosser and a triple English Channel crosser is an ideal individual to have as a guide and main supporter of each attempt. Phil works closely with a highly qualified navigator and in tandem allow for the best probability of success.
