Most people will naturally float in water, especially if they fill their lungs with air. Most require only about 11 pounds of extra buoyancy to keep their heads out of water. That is why a PFD with just 15-1/2 pounds of buoyancy can provide flotation for an adult— even a large person. PFDs with 22 – 34 pounds of buoyancy can provide superior performance in rough, off shore type of conditions.
