You’ll have a life jacket on and will have to demonstrate you can get into a raft. If you seriously can’t swim at all maybe learn? Perhaps some swimming lessons or just jump into the shallow end of a pool and teach yourself to tread water. You could probably teach yourself with some YouTube videos and access to a pool in a couple hours.
