Floating Espresso Bar - Day 4 (Friday Morning)

Our final morning on the water this year....and it didn't disappoint. Lots of friends and family of competitors made the swim out so it was a nice and relaxed scene. And we ran out of coffee before 9AM - 15 gallons! We're going to have to increase our capacity to 20 gallons next year - wow!

Enjoy the race tomorrow....and we'll be in touch soon with an online special to reward those who made the swim.

Mahalo!

Floating Espresso Bar - Day 2 (Wednesday Morning)

Another fun day on the water. No cloudy start today...it was HOT from 7AM on! Went through 12 gallons of coffee and the Baker's Breakfast cookies were a hit...along with Gu's new pineapple roctane flavor.

Stop on by tomorrow. IM Talk will be conducting more interviews and Blue 70's Beijing Gold Medalist will be swimming out as well. Beat him and you win a Blue 70 speed suit. Good luck!

Mahalo....

Floating Espresso Bar - Day 1 (Tuesday Morning)

What a morning! Started out overcast and cool but soon warmed up. Went through 8 gallons of coffee. Gu's new "pineapple" flavor was a huge hit as well. Blue 70 will be on the water tomorrow, as well as IMtalk. Dolphins made a visit near the end of the session. I was swimming on the course around 10AM and ran into a pod of at least 80! Just cruising in circles, having fun.

We're working on an easier solution to gather email addresses for a post-race special. You can email us your address here as well.
