1 or 2 actions for "Water to water" samsaran feat?

[FlyJonat]

I'm currently playing a level 12 samsaran and I plan to pick the "water to water" ancestry feat at level 13.

One thing confusing me is the action cost. The feat says 1 action on foundryvtt and the pdf, but it doesn't mention a cost on archives of nethys. The feat allows me to cast translocate twice a day and that spell is 2 actions so I don't know if I need to use the 1 action cost of the feat or the 2 actions cost of the spell.

the errata for the book removes the single action cost from Memory of Mastery on the same page. Perhaps since they're the official prd, AoN were told to do so for Water to Water as well and the others haven't gotten the memo

The book/pdf or official errata would be the authoritative source. So if the pdf says the ability is one action, then it should cost one action. Casting a modified version of Translocate would be a subordinate action that does not have a separate action cost, and the action cost of the actual Translocate spell would not be meaningful.

If there is errata removing the action cost entry from Water to Water, then there is a good argument for having the action inherit the action cost of the Translocate spell that it references.

I have also seen times where AoN has errors in it. They are usually pretty good about fixing those. But I would treat this as an AoN error until official errata comes along to actually override the book/pdf.

It's pretty clearly a feat that just gives casts of the spell, so does nothing to action costs:
"You can cast translocate as an occult innate spell twice per day;"
All action costs are typos.
