GLAN, Sarangani (May 11, 2015) – Atty. Ingemar Macarine, also known as the Pinoy Aquaman, swims from Maasim to Glan in the first-ever solo Sarangani Bay crossing Sunday, May 10. Macarine, a pioneer in solo channel swimming in the Philippines, is the first Filipino to swim from Alcatraz Island Penitentiary to San Francisco City, California, USA (2.7 km in 1 hour on April 7, 2014). Before his Sarangani Bay swim, the latest in his 10 long-distance swimming feats was the Santa Fe, Bantayan Island to San Remigio, Mainland Cebu swim with a distance of 19.99 km in 7 hours and 45 minutes last April 12, 2015. The swim was to promote climate change awareness and tourism. (Jake Narte/SARANGANI INFORMATION OFFICE)
