I would be curious to know where on Long Island the conditions are 5 star. I don't think the race at Plum Gut is even 5 star. Or maybe I just don't understand what 5 star means. Bill Leonhardt -----Original Message----- From: owner-paddlewise_at_paddlewise.net [mailto:owner-paddlewise_at_paddlewise.net] On Behalf Of Duane Strosaker John and All, At this symposium, there were four 5 Star Sea candidates (I was a part of the group they led), and none passed. Afterwards, Nigel Dennis was saying that the new 4 Star Sea, which now has a leadership component, is all that 99% of Americans need, because the only two places in the USA that have the type of tidal currents where the 5 Star assessment can even happen is San Francisco and Long Island.
