Let this item be a 1 use as well that reduces the phlegm cost of swimming significantly for a short time.

Swimming is already super easy

Life Preservers / flotation devices.

Beginnings
Early humans may have used inflated skins or sealed gourds to assist in crossing rivers. In the 16th century, Leonardo da Vinci sketched a diving suit and lifebelt. It wasn't until lifesaving services began to form, however, that the issue of safety was taken seriously. Norwegian seamen were the first to build life-preserving devices, using blocks of wood or cork-stuffed vests. An 1808 issue of the Universal Magazine, Volume 10, contains a letter from W.H. Mallison trying to gain support for his invention, the Seaman's Friend, but it was not adopted.

Maybe, if we could construct some kind of thing, like dry deers hide x2, Dry boards x2, you could construct a Flotation buoy which reduces phlegm cost by 50% when swimming. It decays over time when swimming and is worn in the belt slot.

Sure it is lol
A 5 humour character can swim decently enough to get around most things if they just take a moment to look for the shallow end
10 humours and you're fine for most crossings and 20 you're in the clear

Swimming is too easy. Don't really need swimming boosts. Maybe a cheaper boat.
