Swimming has always been a weird thing in Rockstar's various franchises; forever the instant death-bringing achilles heel to all their protagonists, even in GTA III.

Red Dead was no different, but now that there are multiple islands offshore that you're going to have to visit - a penitentiary and what looks like an interworking system of cave tunnels in the south-east - surely our new protagonist won't die at the barest touch of the wet stuff?

You'll hopefully remember the mission in RDR where you had to travel to Mexico on the back of a rickety old raft, so maybe this is an indication of how we'll get around?
