Eddie Spelling Brings Channel Swimming To The Home
Eddie Spelling is working to bring English Channel swimming to the home, school, and office. With his Live Channel Swimming Viewer, Spelling is enabling family, friends, and fans to watch individual and relay channel attempts taking place in real-time. From the warmth and comfort on land, viewers can track the course of swimmers as their progress is plotted on the online map at LoveChannelSwimming.com.
Viewers can also see other ships and Channel Swimming & Piloting Federation and Channel Swimming Association escort boats crossing the channel. Viewers can also learn the real-time weather and tweets of a swim that is about to happen and is in progress.
Spelling, a registered pilot of the Anastasia with the Channel Swimming & Piloting Federation, has been escorting English Channel swimmers together with Robert Thompson and Mike Spelling for over 10 years and is now utilizing modern technology via the Live Channel Swimming Viewer to bring the sport closer to the public.
