Will this reservoir keep seawater OUT of the bladder if one were to go overboard? Hydration bladders that can leak seawater or contaminated water into the bladder can be more dangerous than dehydration for water rescuers, distance swimmers, etc. Thanks!

The hose or bladder would have to be punctured or the bite valve would have to be ripped off for seawater to get in. I've beat the crap out of my Camelbak bladders--I'm active duty Army (infantry). I've never had a Camelbak bladder leak on me ever!

I have one of these bladders and sometimes have a lot of pressure on it in my full pack, have never had a problem with it leaking. I would not worry about sea water getting in it. I also have a bladder from the north face, it does leak.
