This is all a bit metaphorical for me, I'm not swimming, I've got a fleet of unmanned boats. Heading upstream works just fine if you avoid the protruding rocks that sink your boats.

Not saying swimming with the current doesn't work, but how many friends you gonna pay to swim with you 30,000? Do they need to sleep? What's the overhead involved? Still have to watch out for protruding rocks too..
