is this also a floatation jacket

No, it is not. Just a lightweight fishing jacket with plenty of pockets. I hope this helps.

This fly fishing vest is only for gear not for safety,You should get a separate life jacket.i would get a larger size vest&where; your jacket under it.

I'm sorry, but I don't have the answer to your question as I purchased this life jacket as a gift for my son-in-law. I can tell you that he uses it for kayaking/canoeing and he loves it because it doesn't get in the way when he is paddling.

This jacket was used in conjunction with his swimming lesson. No as a life jacket. Thanks.

Yes it floats. I use it in my shower for propping my foot on to shave legs.

I do not believe so. This is a mirror-based system reflecting physical objects to create the illusion of floating.

Brian I know nothing about the neoprene one. I would expect that it may be the same. I had asked around about kids life jackets / beginning to swim type and was told about the Speedo one. I am very please with this one and had no problems with my grandson wearing it. He had a different one that was bulky, like the life jackets you see on boats and hated wearing it as it rubbed him under his arms and on the side of his face as it rode up on him. Got him this one and absolutely NO COMPLAINTS about wearing it. I got the 30-50 lbs one and he is six years old. He is small for his age, but anything bigger would not have worked it would have had to be returned as it would have defeated the purpose because it would have been too big. He is still wearing it this year. Hope this helps.

It will definitely keep the person afloat but not sure about putting it around the waist. I'd ensure I had an approved life jacket for that.

I have used this on about 30 dives and never noticed that it floated. I've never dropped it in the water to see if it floated, its always been attached to my wrist, but in my experience I would say no

Not a good idea. It specifically states that it is not a substitute for a life jacket and is not a life saving device. So, please do not replace your life jacket with this.

It's big enough to fit behind your head. I wouldn't suggest using it as a floaty.

Absolutely! This is one of the few vests that has flotation material under the dogs chest which helps keep their head above water. Just make sure you get the appropriate size for your dog.

Nope, no floatation value, but very little weight/drag either. They do a good job of blocking wind and keeping a chill away. You will need something more high tech for that.

It might with floatation a little. I have used it in Hawaii in Salt Water. Salt water help with floatation too so I'm not sure how much the vest helps that way. It sure helps keep me warmer so I can snorkel longer though.

Yes, It does float the camera. I use it when I am snorkeling in the Bahamas

Yes. It's like thin polar fleece. It's breathable and has convenient pockets in the back.

Yes, the entire float is as seen in the photo. I love mine! The only problem is that after sitting on it for a time, you will need to put a bit more air in to keep it firm. But it's comfortable and I love the open foot area for splashing my toes in the water. And! It's inexpensive.
