The 2nd 2 legs have nothing to sight until you get close enough to see the buoys. Those 2 legs are where you need it most, as the current will blow you off course. I noticed this last year, and since it wasn't improved; I assume they have no intention of fixing it.

Not doing this again. Did it last year in 1hr 53 min. Sighting was awful then, and thought it was b/c it was my first race & just didn't know what I was doing. The course is just bad w/ buoys only located at the half way point of a leg and the turn for the next leg. That's too far apart to see from the water surface. I noticed this in someone else's comment from a previous year. Really, there is no indication that they will fix it.

Was just glad I finished. Got out - stretched to try to avoid the massive back sprain I got last year. Drank some water. But I was so frustrated I just wanted to get out of there.


Current I guess this year. Last year it was the wet suit, this year I ditched the wet suit after the first lap. It was scary, creepy, and frustrating on that 3rd leg of the first lap. Between the current, the wet suit, and not being close enough to see the buyos to sight anythihng; I'm not sure I could have done anything about it.


This MIGHT be okay as a triathlon. I did the swim, so my issues are limited to the swim course. The swim leg of the tri was probably fine since they only used that first leg of the course alone the shore.
