The standard Fastlane® produces a non-turbulent current that has a top speed equivalent to approximately a 22-minute mile pace. The optional Hi-Performance current reduces that time to a 17-minute mile pace. Back to FAQs

The Fastlane uses a remote control to adjust the speed to suit any level of swimming or exercise ability. Back to FAQs

For safety, all swimming machines manufactured by Endless Pools, Inc. are powered by hydraulics to keep electricity away from the pool area. The rugged 5 -hp hydraulic Power Unit is located remotely with your pool equipment or in a garage or shed. Environmentally safe, non-food grade, biodegradable vegetable oil is used to power the Fastlane. Up to five gallons of fluid flow per minute to and from the Fastlane in hydraulic hoses.

When unpacked completely assembled, the Fastlane swim unit is 34" tall, 18" deep and 21" wide. When the rails are attached to the Deck Mount Fastlane, they add an additional 2" on each side to bring the width to 25". The rails extend 19" above the Deck Mount Fastlane and 16" behind the pool wall. When the Deck Mount Fastlane is installed on your pool deck, the rails rise approximately 13" above your pool deck, depending on the freeboard height.

West Indian manatees can swim up to 20 miles per hour (mph) in short bursts, but they usually only swim about three to five mph.

Southern Rights have a top speed of 17 km/h, but usually move at a modest rate of between 0.5 and 4 km/h. Their maximum diving depth is about 300m.

FastLane is the National Science Foundation's electronic proposal and award system. It is the point of entry for submission of proposals, revised budgets, progress reports and requests for no-cost extensions.

The dolphin's fast cruising speed (a traveling speed they can maintain for quite a while) is about 3-3.5 m/s (6-7 knots, 11 - 12.5 km/hr). They can reach speeds of up to 4.6 m/s (9.3 knots, 16.5 km/hr) while traveling in this fashion. When they move faster, they will start jumping clear of the water (porpoising). They are actually saving energy by jumping. When chased by a speedboat, dolphins have been clocked at speeds of 7.3 m/s (14.6 knots, 26.

California sea lions have been known to dive 1000 feet deep; however, most dives are less than 100 feet. Most often California sea lions swim a few miles per hour underwater. They can swim 25 mph in short bursts by “porpoising” or leaping out of the water to increase speed.

The swim current is generated by a 16" propeller inside a protective stainless steel case that is driven by a hydraulic motor. There is no electric connection at the pool site. The current is totally adjustable in speed from zero to a racer's pace. The current goes down the center of the pool, enters a grill in the underwater back bench, and circulates to the front of the pool inside the two side benches.

A killer whale can reach speeds of 28 miles per hour. They usually swim much more slowly at about 6 to 8 miles per hour. Human Olympic swimmers can only swim at top speeds of 4.5 miles per hour.

Possibly. This will depend on several factors. Please discuss your particular situation with your renal team.

There are those who swim from the resort to the island…but you need to be a VERY competent swimmer. Additionally, by swimming, you aren’t able to bring a bag/tote along for your necessities (tanning lotion, snacks, sunglasses, etc.). The island does NOT have a beach, and it is more for recreation and socializing. If you are going to COR, do NOT miss the opportunity to meet some of the wonderful, engaging folks on the island! COUPLES Swept Away—there is no nudity at CSA.

Of course! It's true that the pump is a fairly sensitive instrument and should be protected from being immersed in water. But there are several easy ways to handle the pump when bathing, showering, or swimming. Medtronic Diabetes makes several products that simplify this and other every day issues.

How fast do you want to go? You're driving! How fast you go depends on you and your abilities, and higher speeds will come with knowledge and experience. While we encourage participants to find their limits, every student is coached at their individual comfort level. We also start with a variety of driving exercises geared to teach you the basics of car control. Only after you've established a solid foundation will you be able to drive to the best of your abilities.

Microsoft says that Windows XP performs 5 percent to 20 percent faster than Windows Me and Windows 9x and is on par with Win2K. "Windows XP gets faster as you use it, too," Kristian Gyorkos, an XP product manager, told me, "because of its dynamic, self-tuning features. Periodically, the application-launch, system-boot, and file-placement routines are optimized." Microsoft notes that Standby and Resume performance has also improved.

Yes! The most popular beach for swimming, snorkelling or just having fun is on Direction Island. You can visit the island via the Ferry on Saturday or take a day trip with one of the local tour operators. Whatever your choice, don't miss Direction Island. Also Prison Island is another popular area to swim as is many of the channels between the more remote islands.

All children enrolled in the Summer Fun Program swim on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons at the Mt. Lebanon Community Pool, weather permitting. Fees for swimming are an additional cost.

Yes to lagoon, No to swimming pool. Most people getting an average-sized tattoo will have no problem going in the lagoon. In fact, ancient Tahitians used to go into the lagoon immediately after receiving a tattoo in order to speed healing. I do however recommend you use a healing ointment such as tamanu oil, A&D or Biafine and rinse with fresh water after swimming. If you plan on getting a very large tattoo, I would advise staying out of the water 2-3 days.
