You have raised a good point : how many of us can "save" a swim partner. I think there are many ways to make a a swim safer such as checking the weather forecast, eating right, having a bright bathing cap, .. etc.. the list is long and grows with experience. Having a swim partner is also good but i would rank it lower on my list and probably see it less as someone who can perform life saving duties and more as someone who can offer good judgement (i.e. i think its time to get out because those clouds are getting darker; i think you should wear two bathing caps today).
I actually do have a steady swim partner but he swims at a completely different pace and so most of the time we just see each other on the beach.
