Anyone have a reasonably accurate approximation of how their SCY pace per 100 translates when swimming open water? Assuming calm conditions and no navigation issues I'm curious what other people would use to estimate a 5K OW time based on say a 1000 SCY time of 12:30. Any thoughts?

Are you swimming at my feet or am I swimming at yours?
There are too many variables to give you a useful answer. Water surface conditions, temperature of water, currents, measurement accuracy of the course distance, navigation (always a factor), salt water or fresh water, etc. And then there is the infamous: what suit will you wear. :-)
