Samurai received the best training possible back in the day. No doubt similiar to what elite forces of todays US military undergo. Specifically, being thrown into a deep pool with full pack and equipment. Then its sink or swim - U learn - rapidly...
Qapla!

Samurai composite armour was about the same weight as chain mail (much more resistant however) was very light, about 25 or 30 pounds. So, i don't think swimming would be a problem. A knight though.............hope he can breathe underwater http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/biggrin.gif
