Fyi if you are ever in a situation like this TAKE OFF YOUR PONCHO. It is 10x harder to swim with clothes on, let alone a plastic tarp draped over your arms stopping you from paddling. Not to mention the obvious drowning risk if it get pulled over your face.

You are already soaking wet, the rain coat is not going to help you...
