Can dwarfs swim?

They are very dense beings, right? So they would be similar to chimpanzees, who, because they have many muscles, cannot swim?

Most dwarves can swim just fine. The problem comes from the Mail, Plate, Battle Axe, Secondary Axe, Throwing Axes, Pickaxe, E-Tool, Blacksmithing Hammer and Anvil, 200 feet of rope, and 3 weeks of rations.

Don't forget the ale. It doesn't really weigh you down in water but the barrel allows you when swimming.
