I am swimming from Dover England to France

I expect the crossing to take me around 16 hours. I will be in my swimming trunks and a swim hat (no wetsuit permitted) during the swim I will not be able to touch the boat or accept any assistance whatsoever. Food will be passed to me in a bucket to make sure I don't take any advantage from supporters.
