"Ye mean to say... ye went in there on purpose?" Maggie asked perplexed. She knew that on hot days tourists might risk a swim, but they never went out far and she had never seen one on a board before. But then again, she had never heard the word the woman used before. For people like her, going into the sea was done out of necessity - or well, her husband, father and brothers, and one day John, going out to sea was. There was always some risk attached to it, especially on days like this, when the post-storm winds still blew up fierce waves (they looked fierce in Maggie's eyes) and made the currents unpredictable and the air so much colder.
