Perhaps not ideal but as a swimmer you almost always have down as an evasive direction. You do need awareness but this has saved me from multiple shallow hulled fast boats and water jetskis. You can hear them miles away though directionality of the sound is poor or absent.
- notahacker 5y agoIn a 3' deep canal, down is a problematic evasive direction!
- nradov 5y agoWhen I'm doing open water swimming workouts I'm usually wearing a wetsuit buoyant enough that I can't dive down. I probably wouldn't risk swimming at all in waters where jet skis are allowed because they're notoriously irresponsible. It's a good idea to also tow an inflatable buoy to increase your visibility. https://www.newwaveswimbuoy.com/ https://www.newwaveswimbuoy.com/
