little red lighthouse swim

Hi. I am doing the Little Red Lighthouse swim (5.85 mi) in NYC in a couple of weeks. I am a little anxious. I'd like to hear from others who have done this swim -- tips, advice, etc. Can you sight off the lighthouse? Will I get sucked into the water treatment plant? I've done the Bay Swim (4.4 mi) several times -- I have a feeling that with the tidal assist the LRL swim might be easier, even though it is longer. Am I nuts? Well... um, I mean about comparing GCBS with the LRL swim. Thanks in advance! Sarah

    To those of you have done this swim and other mid to north east coast swims how would you rate this one? Most of my travel swims have been to west coast but for 2010 I'm thinking of going east for a swim. Looking at 5 to 10K distance, prefer a no wetsuit race or at least two divisions non wetsuit and wetsuit with equal awards.
