This is a function of buoyancy. We call objects that float, positively buoyant. Objects that sink are called negatively buoyant. We refer to object that neither float nor sink as neutrally buoyant. ... It would be positively buoyant in salt water. To make the object neutrally buoyant in salt water, we would have to add 1 lb...

In salt water, that same 1 cubic foot will displace 64 pounds, because that’s what a cubic foot of sea water (which you recall is heavier by 2.5 percent) weighs. So there is 1.6 pounds more buoyancy in salt water than in fresh.

We have rented flat deck barges for the transportation of rock in the Columbia River, and we are trying to determine if the barge load tables we are using are set for salt or fresh water. Our basic question is: how much of a difference is there between salt and fresh water where buoyancy calculations are concerned?

I weigh 170 lbs and my gear weighs 80 lbs. Thus I must displace 250 lbs to achieve neutral buoyancy. In salt water, I require 250 x 0.026 = 6.5 additional pounds of negative buoyancy over fresh water, as salt water is 1.026 times the density of fresh water.
