About this episode:

The Weedy Seadragons swim at Kingston Beach, south of Hobart every Saturday. In summer, some members swim from Kingston Beach to Blackmans Bay and back – about five kilometres. Harold Gatenby is one of the founders of the group, and he sat down with the Blue Room’s Sabra Lane for a chat about the group, and about the addiction that is ocean swimming.
