Benoit Lecomte is still working on the thousands of small details that he need to design, test, operate and confirm before he starts The Longest Swim in Tokyo, Japan.

Most recently, Lecomte tested the waterproof tape that he will use to adhere medical equipment on his body during his swim; he made final inspections of his new escort sailboat, and he confirmed the details of his corporate partnership with GoPro.
