Only the bravest of heart can claim this achievement, by reaching a water geohash without a watercraft. Waterskiing, or otherwise being attached to a boat, also disqualifies you. If you start from a boat, you must swim (or at least drift and tread water) for at least 10x the margin or error of your GPS device. The geohasher may wear a life jacket or other safety floatation device if the body of water justifies it.
