Hi Swimmers
Lots of developments in the Swimovate camp already this year. We have launched our new BLUE PoolMate watch and due to popular demand we have some great PoolMate Polo shirts for sale on our website in a variety of sizes. We have been amazed by the number of customers who want to help us fly the flag and tell others about our watches either by words or actions- thanks guys!
MAC software for the Pro will be available very soon now and we are so pleased with it we will be rolling it out for the PC as well! If you already have a PoolMate Pro and want to beta test the MAC software in the next couple of weeks please email us.
Our customers never fail to inspire us, I was touched by Denny Burns from Canada today, he is a loyal PoolMate user and in his own words ” My PoolMate Pro has changed my life!”. He is virtually swimming his way across all 5 Great Lakes and is part way through the second already. Once he hits the final 20 miles across Lake Michigan he’s going to do the real thing in the lake itself! Wow! Send us some pictures Denny.
Last week I heard from a lovely lady in the US who had started swimming last year to lose weight. She has gone from 225 pounds to 202 pounds and from swimming 2 laps to 70 laps. At the start she could manage only 5 mins before having to stop, now she can manage 50 mins- way to go girl! The PoolMate helps her set goals and motivate herself.
It just goes to show the diversity of our customers and the value they can get from the watch in different ways. Speaking of diverse swimmers, we have a stand at the UK cold water championships tomorrow at Tooting Beck Lido (open air, not heated, no wetsuits and below zero temperatures!) I wont be taking my costume that’s for sure!
Finally we have been keeping up with the times as well -Please sign up to follow us on twitter and facebook where you will be the first to know our news

Hi Lisa,I love this thing! My poolmate is black, but my sister will love the blue one.One suggestion: On future models, could you please include a countdown timer with a chime?Not only am I too lazy to count laps, I don't want to be bothered checking the time. Isn't that terrible? I like to set my countdown time and meditate (read: zone-out) while I swim.Thanks again–I'm glad somebody finally figured this out. I don't know what kind of patents you have, but I'd make sure your lawyers are the meanest you can find!
