Tim Swieckowski plans to sail into the record books by piloting a small sailboat from Clearwater south along the coast to the mouth of Tampa Bay, then east to St. Petersburg. He will complete this feat using nothing more than his determination, his ingenuity and his breath.
Paralyzed from the shoulders down in a 1990 bicycle accident, Tim Swieckowski aims to set a world record for a quadriplegic by sailing solo for 16 hours in and around the Tampa Bay Area.
