Is it good for ocean swimming?

in my opinion no it may ride up when extremely wet its more of a dry sport or workout compression shirt

No. It is not good for swimming. Even running it seems that the sweet enters the watch.

I bought it for snorkeling in Cozumel in March. The water was about 75. It was great for that. The neck was a little loose but that was fine for what I needed it for.

No, it is waterproof, but i wouldn't recommend swimming with it. It will probably slip off, the elasic band wears out after awhile. I had to keep pulling it up after a month of wearing.

I haven't used mine in the Ocean, only on a river with a strong current. It's a very stable boat and unlikely to turtle, but the tracking isn't the best so if there's a current it'll be a challenge to manoeuvre it. The rubber is very sturdy and should withstand the salt water. But I'm not sure how it would handle in stronger currents.

I do not know, never work with it when swimming, from the material, I believe it should work during surfing or swimming.

I wouldn't recommend it. It's a very stable kayak, but when you have the element of waves, the likelihood that it will take on water increases. I would say to get a kayak that is made specifically for the ocean.

I used this camera for both SCUBA and snorkling in seawater without any problems. I did rinse the outside with fresh water when I finished, just as I would with my dive gear. I believe this is one of the best price/feature cameras for its price range.

Yes, this is perfect for open water swimming and/or swimming in a very cold pool. It has a lot of flexibility. Water doesn't enter the neck of mine, and I purchased it a size too big for easier on/off.

Unfortunately I'm in the middle of the Desert right now so it's being tested with the extreme heat, blowing sand, sweat, and dust. It's performed great so far. I have not been in the water w/ it yet. I am a scuba diver and it is guaranteed waterproof down to 33 feet so I will test it for you when I have the chance. It should work just fine. Just make sure you rinse it in fresh water if you take it into salt water. Salt water will destroy any metal over time.

We found it is water resistant for swimming, but not very sweat resistant. Areas where he sweated heavily (middle of chest, around underarms) did get a little bit sunburned on my partner, but we both swam in the ocean and this did not affect the performance of the product at all.

I wouldn't if I could help it.. I don't think its rated for swimming. I've taken it on some pretty wet runs but never purposely submerged it. Doubt it would survive a Triathlon is that's what you're thinking.

This product would be good for moderate wave action --- I use prescription sea sickness patches for rough seas.

Hi Felix, This specific model is not waterproof. It can't be used for swimming. -Anthony

All of the documentation I have found online states water resistant.Which usually means as long as you aren't diving with it you should be ok. My concern though would be the optical sensor on the back used for measuring heart rate. I personally would not swim with it on.

Yes. Great for swimmers - Fully water resistant making them the most effective exercise tools for measuring your heart rate while involved in water sports. http://www.heartratemonitorsusa.com/polar-t31c.html

I agree with the other posters. Salt water is fine but I wouldn't take out in the ocean because the tracking isn't great and strong winds/currents = super heavy drag. Flatwater is best for the Sevylor. I have another inflatable, the AE Sport, and I wouldn't hesitate to take that out to sea tho I think the AE AF performs better on the open water. Hope that helps.
