Swim-Off Results - Final Placings

Better sea conditions greeted the divers today as they entered the water at Cuvier Island. Fish were also more plentiful, particularly pelagic species. It gave teams a chance to make up for the previous day's sometimes less than happy performances as well as being helped by the current leader's presenting fish which did not reach the minimum weight! As a result changes in placings occurred and final placings were very close.

Swim-Off Results - Day 2

The following 5 pairs contested the first day of the selection trials to select the NZ Team to compete in Australia April 2009 at the Inter Pacific Spearfishing Championships. Today's competition was held on the outside of Red Mercury Island in good conditions even if the fish were not all that plentiful.
