No official recognition for Florida Straits swimmer Poenisch
Walter Poenisch, 83, of Grove City, seeks induction in the International Swimming Hall of Fame after claiming the 1978 Havana to Little Duck Key swim of 128.8 miles. The hall’s attorney says it does not certify swims or determine firsts, and will not recognize Poenisch or Susie Maroney. Poenisch will file for induction in Fort Lauderdale to list his achievement.
