Comments:

First 30 sec was exhilerating, after that the first 10 minutes were scary. First, 20 minutes were unsettled overall. Finally, got in a steady groove/pace after that. Got "lost" a few times (had trouble with the 2nd to last buoy) and off-course.
What would you do differently?:

1. Try to get in a groove sooner.
2. More OWS experience.
3. Stay closer to course.

You did a great job!  You met your goal, right (or very close).  Nice swim, good pace.

THANK YOU ALL for your kind words and support.  I forgot that in posting my race, this thread would be created.  I was so excited and touched to see your responses.  Thank you again.  Who wants to come swim next year?
