Perhaps you would like to quote the sources. For instance "The
administration of water by enema was probably a great help in speedily
alleviating the dehydration suffered by us in times of drought. While we
used water that was unpalatable, it was not undrinkable. I had wondered if
it would be possible to use sea water in this way, but Lyn had strongly
advised against it. Sea water taken by enema would cause as much damage as
if it was taken by mouth." Dougal Robertson, 'Survive the Savage Sea'. Since
he brought himself, his wife, three children and a family friend through 37
days adrift in a dinghy, his comments need to be taken seriously.

You'd be much better off giving yourself an enema with it, than sitting in
it.

Several cases of extended survival at sea without drinking, using seawater
enemas have been reported.
