Three miles offshore of the Farallons seems swimmable, but unfortunately it’s a breeding ground for great white sharks.

If the water was bad enough to sink the ship then I imagine it'd make it hard to swim anywhere. Plus it was March so the water would be pretty cold.

Pacific is cold all year-—wet suit to surf. San Francisco can have high temperatures in the 60’s in summer. Point Reyes seashore-—placed beer in the surf to keep cold.
