Chris Bryant sadly passes away

Chris, a firm fixture on Sea Satin, and previously Rocco, sadly passed away.

It is with great sadness that we have to report that Chris Bryant sadly passed away yesterday evening.

Chris has worked on the Channel Swimming piloting boats for many years, with Alison and more recently with Lance and crew on Sea Satin. The depth of his knowledge, experience and passion has been an honour for a a generation of Channel swimmers to experience.

We will all truly miss him.
