Depends on how inexpensive you are talking about. I have a Nike Triax that I have used a few times while swimming and it has worked. I was able to get it for really cheap, but my wife works at Nike so I have a pretty sweet hookup.

I use RPE for swimming - costs 0$.
My HRM only on in the swim for races and even then its only so I don't have to attach the strap at T1.
If you do a 10sec pulse count right after your set you should get a pretty good idea. HR comes down quickly in the pool/water so 10secs is all you need.

Nike Triax C8, right around $100 (on the 'net or $120 in the stores). It's been great for me.

Ive been doing the post set manual but am looking to keep a more comprehensive log. Coaches orders. The Triax C8. Does this have the ability to download the log to a PC/Mac?

Looking to pick up an inexpensive HRM for swimming. Currently I am using the Suunto T6 Advisor but the radio signal is lost through the water. The choices are bewildering and looking for some good advice.
