ABSTRACT:
A floatation device for safely supporting a person, including paralyzed, disabled, or mobility impaired persons, upon a body of water for exercise or relaxation. This device encloses the person within concentric outer flotation members and a seat assembly from which position the person may float, walk or wade in the water as desired while either being continuously supported or providing only the support required. The outer flotation members are spaced from the user to also enclose him and these outer members provide the buoyancy and stability required for use. If desired, a hand rest can be positioned intermediate the outer flotation members and seat assembly of the floatation device for further ease of use and for grasping purposes.
