Corrected entry: The group was in the ocean for at least 4-6 hours. Only Amy wore a life jacket. With the exception of a few characters holding onto the dual mooring hooks at the stern for a few minutes, they all were along the side of the boat treading water for the entirety of the many hours in the water. Elite Coast Guard rescue swimmers would be lucky to exhibit such stamina over such an extended period of time.
