Default Re: Endurance Prop Bets (Pool & Ocean) in Turks & Caicos

I think while it would definitely suck, he could still do this. I know at least in T&C (i've spent a lot of time on Provo) that there are a lot of sandy, calm bay beaches where there is no strong tide and the ground is fine white sand.

In a situation like this he could def keep his shoulders below water and do stuff like crawling into shallower water just adjusting how extended his legs were so that he could sit on the sand for a few hours to rest (and the water will always be warmer the shallower it is) and since the effects of tide/waves would be minimal that could help a lot.

I am not as familiar with Aruba although I believe there are stronger tradewinds there (not sure what they are like in the fall though), but from what I have seen it seems like there would be some similar flat, sandy calm beachy areas that would make this very doable for McCabe.
