Which life jacket type offers the greatest flotation and will turn the wearer right side up?

SOLAS
Standard
Small vessel jacket
CO2 inflated vest

The correct answer is: SOLAS

A SOLAS life jacket, also known as a "survival" life jacket, is specifically designed to provide the greatest amount of flotation and will turn an unconscious wearer to the upright position. It is also designed to withstand harsh weather and water conditions. This makes it the most suitable option for emergencies on the open water. The other options, while still effective, do not provide the same level of flotation and may not be as effective in keeping the wearer upright in the water.
