You can use the wiki map and find the general location of land and then in game try to figure out which way to go using a /loc macro

Aye swim to the island with the boat dock on it, it will take about 20-30 mins of swimming but you will get there lol

Think of it as getting a leg up on your swimming skill.

You can /petition and a GM might help ... if they're on, and not busy with other things.

(But as others suggested, as slow as swimming may be, it's still probably faster unless a GM happens to be free at that exact moment ... and you'll improve your swimming skill in the process :))

Hahaha, beats me Lorabear! I get stressed everytime I even consider hopping in one. And why do canoes seem to max out swimming at like 10....

Just go to Everfrost and run up and down the frozen river for an hour, your swimming skill will shoot up without having to swim!

and OP, your best bet is learning how the /loc function works and using the maps to find an island. Alternatively, you can install zliz or nparse for the maps, but you'd have to do some configuring and I wouldn't want to do that while swimming! (assuming you haven't found land yet...)

You stand in the canoe and right click it and then you'll be driving it. They're very slow - like the previous guys said it's about equivalent to a swimming skill of 10. Right click it again (or jump) and you'll stop controlling it and can walk normally.

Thanks: now that I know the secret I'm totally going to go pretend to be Kraddok (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skdjtFkF6KY) sometime ;)

I was going to try and find out - but apparently this boat floats 3 feet above the water so I can't get into it...

Sounds like someone got the classic bonus feature.
