I've heard of people doing that in a pickle.  Don't know about Krowtan.

Generally speaking you are not going to get much penetration of anything from the fur side.

However, in a day or two you will have substantial bacteria growth from the inside.

Floating it would have the benefit of instant contact to the flesh side of the hide AS you are skinning it TODAY, but a pickle would be a lot cheaper since you will surely foul the bath with blood and guts.

Maybe a roadkill rabbit isn't worth your time today, but it will surely not be worth anything in a day or two.

Why not just skin him out and flesh him?  Why do you feel it necessary to toughen up the skin?
