Description
SARAH McKnight is a Londoner who moved to Schull after meeting a Cork man.  She's a swimming teacher, an open water swimming coach and a level one triathlon coach. McKnight started her swim teaching career on board cruise ships, and from there moved to the Cayman Islands, but every Sunday morning she takes a group for a swim off the slipway at the Fastnet Marine Centre in Schull. Southern Star editor Siobhán Cronin joined them recently, but before that had a great chat with McKnight in the town's Harbour Hotel. This episode was produced and presented by Siobhán Cronin, with editing by Dylan Mangan. *** Thanks for listening to The Southern Star's From A to Sea Podcast.
