    the water temp is great in the mid 80's, I know it sad that there not doing around the island this year. Thats what I do when I do my long swims for Channel training and it is far better. But the wanted to do a reclangle corse for safty it was to hard to make it safe. There is a fairy that goes back and forth ever 15 or so min or so the had problems with swimmer not seeing the fairy coming. I recentlly had a close call getting run down by it and I have swam it alot . but there will be a Island start witch is really cool.I live up far north of Chicago almost in WI and it was a good 3 hour drive. Its a clean lake. The BQ will be held on the island after the race. Hope to see your guys there its a really great race and place.
