I'll be doing the Alcatraz Invitational on September 21, 2008. Although I've been swimming in the bay this will be my first crossing. I'm in the non-wetsuit division. My question - are neoprene caps (Barracuda, Blue Seventy, etc.) legal in the non-wetsuit division?
Any other tips for a first-timer?
Will a neoprene cap be needed (it's a pretty short race)?

Thanks Ron. I just got an e-mail from the race director that said that neoprene caps are legal. I'll have one on-hand just in case.
I agree with your view about not wearing a wetsuit. Besides, who wants to look like a seal while in the ocean?
