They weren't swimming when they attempted escape. They were in a bullshit raft which likely fell apart completely after 10-15 minutes of them floundering around and with the tide/wind carrying them quickly towards the channel and out to sea.

And there is nothing "easy" about it... if any of you have ever seen the current coming out of that bay when coming in under the bridge from the ocean, you'd immediately understand that its a completely hopeless endeavor to try to paddle away from that island with a makeshift raft at night (with wind).

If you "made it", you did so with perfect conditions. Not in a crappy raft, against the tide and wind, in the black of darkness, with a large tide (affecting current speed).
