Kiss Goodbye to MS With Thomas Pembroke
Courtesy of WOWSA, Molokai Channel, Hawaii.Thomas Pembrooke, a school teacher from Australia, completed a crossing of the Molokai Channel to complete his fourth Oceans Seven channel (English, North, Catalina, Molokai) under the guidance of Jeff Kozlovich. For each of his channel swims, he raises money and awareness for a different cause. His swim between Molokai and Oahu islands helped raise much needed funds for the project, Kiss Goodbye to MS.
