Damage usually occurs when this skill fails from drowning and stamina is
taxed by the use of this skill. Note that standing still in water will
continue to take stamina as you are considered to be treading water.
This skill replaces the use of inventory held boats.
* This skill is affected by the type of armour you wear. Heavier armour
will increase the chance of failure in this skill.
