Ideally, the floatation device includes an auxiliary floatation device for encumbered users that can be used with a primary lifejacket worn by a user. The auxiliary floatation device includes a buoyancy portion that, in 5 use, can be attached to the legs of the user, and the orientation of the torso of the user is controlled by the buoyancy force provided by the buoyancy portion and, in turn, effect the distance between the mouth of a user and waterline, which is referred to as the "freeboard".
