In looking at the www.nycswim.org website, it seems that they have changed both the start time and location for this year's LRL swim (13 September 2008). Originally it was listed as starting at 4:45 pm and going south-to-north with the incoming tide. However, it is now listed as starting at 2:15 pm and going north-to-south. But the tidal charts say that this means that you would be swimming against the current, which is brutal in the Hudson.
Anyone have any info on this? Thanks.

Thanks, Rosie.
However, I'm still wondering about the current going against the swimmers, at least according to the NOAA tidal chart. Obviously, someone knows something that I don't.
