Is a nice experiment but 14 days at sea is to low. They should be able to survive for much more time than this. Tropical and Mediterranean Snails evolved to endure a dry season and in the same conditions of lack of water and scorching sun will look for a high ground exposed to cooling winds, hide under an emerged branch with a lot of colleagues, produce an epiphragm to seal themselves to the branch and then aestivate for several months. For snails crossing the sea is "space travel" level, and would attack the problem in the same way as human astronauts. The best strategy is entering in an hibernation phase and sleep the entire voyage. As they travel in groups would mate soon after reaching a new land.
