I am curious what is needed to swim a goat?, Hmmm, Well some water!, (and not like 10,000 fathoms deep.) Some 'courage'. A Long rope (Leash!) And a capable 'something' to pull it back to shore if it goes awry. And as said previously make sure the two underbelly plugs are inserted and tight...

My two Onan 7000W generators have timing gears...
