We all know that drafting off someone allows you to go faster with less effort, I am wondering if being drafted off of slows one down? Anyone know?

Is drafting permitted in Fina Sanctioned swims?
It's a been a few years since I've done open water swims. But last I knew, drafting was usually illegal in open water swims. But it seemed to be dependant on the race. Most races would try to keep to drafting to a minimum, while a couple had no specific rule agaisnt it.
