Craig,

You are obviously ill-equipped.  Get an R-392. They float. Unfortunately, 
they float controls side down. Maybe you could get a snorkel and face mask. 
Maybe you could get some floatation thing to keep it upright.

Anyway, Happy Splashing.

PS: I view the horse being beaten from a distance and have thus far avoided 
comment on the line filters sometimes passing 3 to 6 ma of ac current, and 
that GFCI's sometimes are *rated* at 5 ma current differential, and that 
some folks have houses where basement outlets are GFCI protected one way or 
another, and also from telling diatribe type stories on how a fused line 
cord can make a widow out of your wife.
