Yeah my wife commented yesterday about how they are cleaning up all the areas around the race and nearby. Would be nice if they could just keep that up at others times too.

See on seatemperatures the water is 23.9. Is that correct. Why do i read the water is very cold?

[mon-goose]

I've looked at a few sites recently and I don't trust those temperatures. I recon it's maybe the temperature of the top mm of water then below that it drops 10 degrees:)
