ABSTRACT:
A floating assembly for suspending a person on water has a sheet material that defines the periphery for the floating assembly. A plurality of floatation devices are attached to the periphery. The plurality of floatation devices includes a top floatation device that forms a head pillow, a first side floatation device, and a second side floatation device positioned opposite to the first side floatation device. A first arm space is defined between the top floatation device and the first side floatation device, and a second arm space is defined between the top floatation device and the second side floatation device. The periphery can also be defined by a foldable frame member that has a folded and an unfolded orientation.
