Salt water gives you a little more buoyancy, however freshwater will take you to the limit very quickly...
If you should want to swim for an extended period, have a boat fallow you, should you encounter any unforeseen short falls.

There have been a number of drownings right here in the Lakes Region This Year. Preventable YES. A Great thread and read by, Dave R

Unfortunately, we read about this topic way too often here.
