You thinking about a world record for number of boats scuppered by one person?
The half distance definitely sounds like an option to me. I'm not sure about the full, the swim is a long way. Based on swimming a mile in about half an hour (a nice leisurely pace, and eminently holdable) it would take 3.5 hours to swim. Training for that would be an absolute bugger. Hopefully they'd let you do a bit of backstroke just to even it out. The rest of it seems perfectly reasonable.
hmmmm.....
