The 2 kilometer race from Mermaid's Cove to Mullaghmore Harbour in County Sligo took place on Sunday 21 August.
The race had been due to run at high tide on Saturday 20th but, due to concerns over weather conditions, was postponed until the Sunday morning. Happily this did not impact on the preparation of the Setanta swimmers.
Over 30 competitors took to the boats before swimming the 2k home to emerge at the boat club slip-way. Setanta were well represented by R Mc Clean and Chris Callaghan and were joined on the day by Clonard's Paul Armstrong and Donegall Diamond's Nuala McGurk.
Mc Clean came home first overall while McGurk was the first female to finish completing a water polo double. Full results are available.
