I too have crossed Lake Rathe and had no swimming skill-ups. This occurred for two mid level characters with swimming skills near the 50s I believe.

Here is one for you that has to do with swimming, running across the ice in Everfrost grants skill up's. I picked up 6 points in less then 1 min doing it 4 days ago.

I cannot for the life of me get a swim skill up anywhere. Can't get it spinning, strafing, sitting in the water. Haven't tried running across ice, but you shouldn't be getting skillups for that anyways.

it's really annoying, especially if you fall off the boat in OoT and have to go uber slow with no hope of speeding up due to skill gains.
